mine printed great but will not screw together. any help would be great.

@SprocketStudios

I think it's just a little too tight, fixing it has been on my to-do list but I keep getting distracted. If you run some fine sandpaper over the threads it should help.

Replying to @SprocketStudios :

I've been sanding for a while, still no joy (medium size egg). Edit: The large version, while slightly better, will not screw together for me either :( I think I may need to do some calibration of my filament for better dimentional accuracy, but I'm also pretty sure that these are not well implemented threads. Which is a shame, because it's a nice model.

The small egg is very good, but the medium egg thread cannot be screwed in. Too much force even crushed the eggshell. I think there may be issues with the model of the medium egg

I very much appreciate the test threads so users can dial in their print settings (or confirm they're good) very quickly before proceeding to the full egg.

@Woogie

Where did you find the test threads? How come your eggs have so many threads?

printed in silk and it came out great. need to lubricate the threads. I used a small amount of lard.

Nice design, printed the midsize egg on A1 mini. Needed a lot of work with sandpaper and knife on the threads to be able to close though.

I love this egg file. I have several different egg designs by different designers and this is my go to file. I have no issues with the threads at all.
