Description
The Kiss Kiss Heart Large Container was designed to hold Hershey's Kisses. It's sized for holding a lot of Kisses. The model is scalable and can be made as big as you like. 200 present is a good choice. To hold different amounts of candy included are a tall model and a short model. I've also uploaded a separate model on Printables (Kiss Kiss for 2) to hold just 2 Kisses, to share with someone close to you.
The top slides over the heart in the base. It is not meant to snap closed, it's a loose fit, there for alignment and makes it easy to open the box.
Though the design is optimized for printing is two colors, it will print fine as a one color model. That being said, I encourage users to try to print it in two colors. Easier than you think. If you have a single color printer that has the ability to pause and change filament mid-print then you can easily make this print.
Do your own research on how to pause and change filament mid-print. Once you’re ready to try it, you just need to pause your machine when it completes the top of the lid and switch to a second color for the type to complete the print.
If you have a Prusa with an MMU2 unit, you don’t need a layered 3D model. Research how to use the advanced settings layer controls to enable a color switch.
More advanced slicers can put in a pause at a level for a filament change.
It's a great gift, quick to make and looks terrific in the right colors.
The exceptional Atomic Filament’s Iridescent Pearlescent PLA is used on one sample. Subtle pinkish cast with other colors inside. The pearlescent quality is wonderfully flat.
The Red Filaments are Atomic Filament’s exceptional Gemstone Ruby Red Translucent PLA, Silky Red PLA, Dark Cherry PLA. Atomic gratefully provided some of the ideal filaments I was after for my Valentine designs. https://atomicfilament.com
