Snowflake TIE Fighter Kit Card Ornament

UPDATE (Nov 2025): Based on user feedback, the tight tolerance cards and parts have been tweaked to add more clearance between parts for easier assembly.

UPDATE: Trying to simplify a little bit, so the version of each file with slightly larger holes and wider gaps is now the “Normal” version.  If the normal versions are too loose then tight tolerance versions are included in the "Tight Tolerance Versions" folder.

Snowflake Themed Star Wars TIE Fighter Kit Card can also be used as a Christmas Tree ornament.  Hollow or solid wings available to suit your preference.  Also contains a version with a ring for hanging and without the ring.

• A filament swap can be done around 2.4mm up to add some detail to the cards. Check your slicer for the proper swap height.
• Individual parts are included so you can print the model without the sprue to save plastic if desired. Parts are now labeled with the letter from the instructions.
• A pdf of instructions is included to print and hand out with the cards if they are given as gifts or stocking stuffers.
• Good bed adhesion is a must for the details to print properly.  Cards in the photos were printed on the Prusa Mini Plus with a little glue stick for extra stick.
• Z height may be adjusted slightly up or down if parts are too tight or too loose from your printer.

NOTES: 
Cards marked as "easy" are for people struggling with bed adhesion. They have all solid bottoms with no disconnected parts. The wings and the cockpit won't have any snowflake details on one side, but hopefully it will print.
 

PRINTING TIPS:
From Printables User: James
“Great model. Trick to a successful print was to print external perimeters first. That prevents Prusa Slicer from putting tiny blobs over your bed as it tries to print a 1mm circular internal perimeter first.”

Versions with the ring have been updated with a thicker ring as suggested by DocWilco.
