Kaleidoscope Easter Egg 2024

A bold and elegant Easter egg design that looks different from every angle. Rotate the two pieces and the patterns change.

To open the egg, grab both halves, wiggle & pull apart. The bottom half has a slight ridge on 2 sides that clicks into a groove in the top. Because of that, it's easier to separate them wiggling in one direction than another. If wiggling one way doesn't work, try the other. It does get easier to open with use. When the pieces are together, hold one side and twist the other 360 degrees a few times and it will loosen up dramatically. You can also encourage it a little (if necessary) with a little sand paper.

This is relatively easy to print. Both pieces can be printed “right side up” so you can use 3-color filament or rainbow filament and have the colors match up.

If you want to print eggs that fit inside each other like Matryoshka dolls, I recommend scaling to 100%, 70%, and 50%. To print below 50%, you'll need to use a 0.25mm nozzle.
