Halloween - 3D Franky Tealight Holder 3D print model

The Idea:

This 3D Halloween model/ 3D printable Tealight Holder was inspired by a jack o'lantern ( traditional carved pumpkin or other root vegetable), lit from within by a candle.

Jack-o'-lanterns are a yearly Halloween tradition that came to the United States from Irish immigrants.

Key Features:

• Optimized for FDM 3d printer so “Just 3D Print! "

• Mid-Low Poly 3d model to visualize easily with any slicing software.

• 2mm thickness to save filament while keeping a still sturdy print

• The supports for the Tealights are also hollow to save filament but strong enough to hold the candles.

• Although the threads for his neck are M14mm size. I found easier to fit 3D printed bolts/screws 1/2" (0.5in) Size. (You can download both sizes M14 & 0.5in and see which one fits better for you. )

Printing tips:

• Print the first 0.5 mm at 2000mm/m speed using 0.1mm layer height to stick to the bed strongly.

*The rest can be printed between 2400mm/m to 4800 mm/m speed

• Print layer height 0.1 to 0.2 mm ( recommended 0.1mm to keep all the details)

• Infill min 30% and recommended from 50%

• Light supports are necessary for nose/ears ( for eyes if required.)

• If you print at high speed, ONLY The supports may require some Skirt/Brim or Raft to avoid falls as the extruder moves fast when printing.
