Description
In recent years, manually created thread paintings become popular. Now you can print such paintings on a 3D printer.
Please watch my short video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2IyqjRpU6E
I have developed an application to create string art! Just load the JPG and the program will combine 700 strings so that they convey the image as well as possible.

“Amazing STL Creator 15: String Art”
These STLs are for the most typical settings of FDM printers: layer height 0.2 mm, first layer height 0.3 mm (!!! this is important!), nozzle 0.4 mm, print speed 50-60 mm/s, PLA plastic. printing time 1:10 - 1:50 hours.
The optimal size of the string art circle should be about 120 mm, and it is better to use gray plastic (or colored, but not light or dark).
It is best to view such string art against the background of a uniform, brightly lit surface (for example, a computer screen).
The 120mm strings print quite well. They sag a little (by 1-2 mm), but this is almost unnoticeable. And starting from the second layer of threads, they rely on the previous threads, so they print even better.
