Description

I recently needed some small trophies for different categories, so I came up with these. They are small and need only ~4g of filament (plus 5g for the simple base). Scale as needed, but I doubt it's well suited for much bigger size… (I scaled one of them up 15% for the main category trophy.)

There are two bases included: a simple block and a nicer round base with a somewhat hidden compartment, both also supposed to be printed in vase mode. I added 3 sizes for the round base, 60mm diameter/40mm height, and 50mm diameter/35mm height (both shown) and 60mm diam/60mm height (I didn't print that one. Write a comment if you need a different size and resizing won't do). If you scale them up in x/y, scale the extrusion width up, too. I'll put some sweets in for the younger winners.

Inscriptions are done with a label printer using golden/black tape.

Edit: I also made another design.

Printing

Use vase mode. I used a 0.4mm nozzle with 0.6mm extrusion width on a Prusa Mini, with golden Prusament. I use 0.2mm layer height and 3 or 4 bottom layers. While the extrusion width may be not so important for the chalice or the simple base, it is for the threads of the round base. If the top is to tight or to loose, scale it up or down in x/y (not z) by a bit and reprint. Maybe even print another accordingly resized bottom for the previously non-matching top, then you have two bases…

I suggest Galaxy Black for the base (but I don't have that, so it's only black in the pictures). The round base needs to be printed upside down - whichever side you want to be top needs to be on the plate. Also use a nice bottom infill pattern (e.g. octagram spiral or Archimedean chords).

For higher print speeds you can set filament settings → cooling → “slow down if layer print time is below” to, say, 5 seconds. Do not go too low here, the narrow part of the chalice might degrade.

Advanced users may even “mass produce” these, i.e. print a few in one go: print settings → output options → complete individual objects; also set extruder clearance height there higher than your prints (e.g. 100mm). Make a few instances and place them in their order in the right panel ("Instance1", "Instance2", …; they are printed in that order) from front to back, alternating left and right; do not let the instances overlap in y direction, i.e. the next instance is completely behind the previous, but shifted to the other side (actually a few mm overlap in y might be ok). Slice and show travel paths to verify; see screenshot. This way the x rail doesn't knock over the already printed instances. You can also use this method to print both parts of the round base in one go.
