Design Concept

The candlestick features a spiral design on a hexagonal base. the four square section spiral supports create a wrought iron appearance suitable for various settings.

Usage

This candlestick is designed specifically to hold LED tea lights, providing both ambiance and style to any living space.

Printing Tips

The top section is fragile during printing due to the flexibility of the model and the need for support to the base of the upper cone section. Take it slow.

After a number of print failures I finally achieved consistent good results with these print settings using silk filament.

Layer height. 0.2mm

Wall loops. 4

Top surface pattern. concentric

bottom surface. concentric

Sparse Infil. 20%

Sparse infill pattern. adaptive cubic

internal solid infill pattern . concentric

Layer speed. 125mm/s

Supports. to the bottom of the top cone only I painted those on inside the spiral using the section view in the support painting menu.

The attached .3mf file has these settings for a Creality Hi printer 0.4mm nozzle.

Print with PLA silk for a superior appearance. Supports are essential in the center of the intricate spiral shape to ensure a finished print.
