Small Heart Spiral vortex illusion fidget - v2.1

💕 Small Valentine Heart – Elegance in Miniature! 💕

Imagine a heart made of two parts that twist elegantly into a spiral – yes, you simply twist it together! This creates a magical vortex effect, making this new small version an small charming design. Perfect for Valentine’s Day or any other special occasion! 😍 There's a small hidden message in the design... can you find it? 

In one picture you'll find the 25 ❤ I printed out for a special birthday ;-)

✨ How to make it stand out: Print the two parts in different colors for a striking contrast. Shiny/Silk filament works wonders, giving the spiral an even more impressive and elegant look! ✨

💡 Printing information

It’s easy to print with almost no supports needed (only part 2) – just a little brim, and you’re good to go! It’s quick, fun, and makes for a thoughtful, compact gift.
Important note: Some silk filaments tends to curl upwards with insufficient cooling.
Solution: reduce reduce temperature, reduce speed, rotate the model 90 degrees, change Z-hop... and more

📏 Heart version

New Small Version v2.1: Specifically engineered for its smaller size. The hearts in the base are perfectly centered, and the geometry has been modified to maintain durability and function at this scale.

⚠ Note: This model was not just simply scaled down from the original version. A simple scale-down wouldn't work because the model would not be able to rotate and become unstable. I have redesigned and adjusted this smaller version from the ground up to ensure it works properly at this size and can twist smoothly.

💡 Printing Information 

It's easy to print, almost without supports (only part 2) – a small brim is enough, and off you go! This small version is quick to print and a wonderful gift idea.
Important note: With insufficient cooling, some silk filaments tend to curl upwards. Solution: Reduce temperature and speed, rotate the model 90 degrees, adjust Z-hop, etc.

📏 Heart Version:

New small Version v2.1: Not a mere clone, but an optimized new construction for this size. The hearts in the base are now perfectly centered and stability has been optimized for the smaller wall thicknesses.
⚠ Note: This heart was not simply scaled down! A simple reduction in size would not work, as the model would not be able to rotate and would become unstable. I have completely revised and adjusted this smaller version from scratch to ensure that it functions perfectly at this size and can be turned easily.
