About this 3D model
Hello and welcome! I'm delighted that you've taken the time to explore my model post. Creating this heart imitation has been a labor of love, and I hope you derive as much joy from it as my wife and son do. This heart model serves a dual purpose – it can be proudly displayed on your shelves or mounted as a captivating wall decoration. Now, let's delve into some technical details. I must admit, this is not your run-of-the-mill model; it requires a bit of post-processing effort. Every hole comes with a specific tolerance that you'll need to navigate. Here are my recommended settings: For the Wall: Wall thickness: 2 Infill: 10% Front Side: Layer height: 0.15 Variable layer height Support around the sign and middle pin if you plan to add a spring Back Side: Layer height: 0.15 Support around pin holes Pins: Contour Stand: Support for pins Post-printing, meticulous attention is needed. Remove any supports, strings, or debris from inside and holes. Utilize super glue to secure the pins at the back of the model. For the spring(from pencil) , anchor it to the middle sign and then onto the front of the heart. Prepare your anchoring pins, keeping in mind the tight tolerance. If needed, gently use a knife to adjust the edges. Please exercise caution! The intentionally low tolerance ensures the model hold together and you can take out the spring any time. However, feel free to use glue for added stability. If you find yourself in need of assistance or guidance, don't hesitate to reach on me. Enjoy the creative process, and may your heart model bring you endless delight! Best regards.
