Description
BOM: Printed with ROSA3D Starter PLA Black
Add a touch of modern elegance to your table setting with this spherical tealight holder.
The Design: The model features a continuous array of vertical ribs/fins wrapping around a spherical form. This deep texture not only looks stylish during the day but creates a beautiful interplay of light and shadow when the candle is lit.
Compatibility: Designed to fit standard 38mm diameter tealights (tea candles). The recess holds the candle securely flush with the top rim.
Safety Note:
LED Tea Lights: Highly recommended for PLA prints to prevent warping from heat.
Real Candles: If using real wax candles, please print with PETG, ABS, or ASA (materials with higher heat resistance) and never leave burning candles unattended.
Printing Instructions:
Orientation: Print flat on the bottom base.
Supports: None required (the curve of the ribs is designed to be self-supporting).
Infill: 10-15%.
Walls: 2-3 perimeters ensure the ribs are solid and sturdy.
