Description
Keeping up with tradition, I have created a fun way for children to start putting together their own Christmas ornament with this easy-to-assemble Christmas tree that can print in one go on your newly-purchased SLA resin printer.
To spruce it up a bit, I asked the children what colors they wanted me to paint the little ornaments on the branches. I used nail polish purchased from the dollar store to dab each little bulb. I think the result is a treasure that can last a lifetime.
In a subtle effort to stay relevant with the times, I made the tree levels look like little Covid-19 viruses instead of star-shapes like last year when things were normal. Never forget we're in the middle of history, so why not commemorate our plight with a nuanced twist to this year's ornament design? Hmm? thassright... you likey. :)
Here's last year's ornament: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3914756
Anyways, Merry Xmas in advance!
If you found this useful, it would bring me great joy to see your work - so be sure to share. :)
Or, better yet, please feel free to dump a bitcoin or two here:

... include a note to the effect of "Hi 3E8, thanks for the 2020 xmas ornament thing... my life has improved five-fold on account of it and please accept this paltry amount in gratitude".
You're welcome! (in advance) :D
