About this 3D model

***Christmas and Halloween Cases are identical - Just add your new scenes*** Light up different Christmas scenes in this display. An LED tea light candle is required. The display features a door that opens to allow access to the tea light. Use a section of 1.75mm filament inside the hinge to connect the door to the case. Depending on your printer/setup, this hole may be on the tight side or a bit loose. If tight, drilling out the hole may help. If it is slightly oversized, I suggest melting the end of the filament piece with a soldering iron or lighter. I have included a separate liner. This allows you to print the case in a dark color, but line the inside with a lighter color to allow for more reflection of light outward, making everything brighter. For a complete display, you will need: 1x Case 1x Door 1x Knob 1x Snap Ring 1x Liner - Optional 1x (minimum) Scene - You can easily remove the snap ring to swap out scenes as desired Check out the rest of my Christmas models here ! Print Settings No special setting are needed for the display case, door, knob, snap ring and liner. Scenes Print Settings Print the scenes with 100% infill. The scenes also require color changes: The bottom 3 layers white or clear The top 2 layers should be black for most scenes Blue works well for the snowflake If you have an MMU/AMS, other colors can be added as well Assembly Glue the knob into the door. Only a very small amount is needed. Put the door in place and latch it. Use a 20mm piece of 1.75mm filament to connect the 3 sections of the hinge. If the filament goes in very easily, it may be a good idea to heat up the top end of the filament β€˜pin’ and press it flat. This will prevent the pin from falling through later on. Open the door. Insert a scene into the opening (image facing outward). Insert the snap ring behind the scene by gently squeezing and placing it into the groove (see red arrow below). If you are using a liner, slide it inside the case. This may be a tight fit. Go slowly and be sure to slide it in evenly on all sides. Turn on your tea light and close the door.
