Description

(Please know the printer profile uploaded is only one of seven total print plates. The other plates are located in the RAW files section)

Christmas has always been a time of joy and togetherness so we wanted to create something that can be used year after year to bring those smiles of anticipation in the eyes of children waiting for that special day when Santa comes. That is why we choose to create this advent calendar and also to share in process of putting it together with your family and or friends.

The stocking is quite large for 3D printed objects measuring in at almost 18in tall and 11in wide. Being this size it is of course not a quick print in anyway and does require the use of an AMS, but we wanted to ensure the drawers had enough room so you could add some special treats, messages, jewelry, and more. We also created an assembly guide and link to the light we used to make this easy for you and your family to put together.

Print Settings

All filament colors used are basic Bambu PLA with the exception of the Dark Green which is Hatchbox!

There are a total of 8 print plates with saved settings!

Layer Height on all but the drawer handles is 0.20 Standard

Layer height on drawer handles is set to 0.12 fine and change the print speed to slow or silent.

We hope you enjoy and Merry Christmas to all!

I’m not sure if I’m making a mistake in my settings or something, but across two attempts, I cannot get a stocking printed that will slide together without a significant amount of post-process filing work. The problem seems to be that the hexagonal holes are just not printed big enough.

@Applejax_Indust

So you are getting a gap in between the stocking top and bottom and having to fill the gap? Or the hex pins are too big and not fitting into the hex holes for you, making them too tight to push all the way in or not push in at all without sanding to make them smaller?

@aikouka

Replying to @Applejax_Indust :

I think that it's a mix of the pins being too big and the holes being too small. On my latest print, I noticed that one hole seemed to be visibly larger than the others, and after a small bit of filing, the corresponding peg had no problem fitting into it. However, it took significantly more filing to make the others work. (I actually filed them into squares instead of hexagons.) Although, even with that, I still ended up with a slight gap. It's not very noticeable though.

Thank you so much! That means a lot to hear that. Merry Christmas!🎄

@aikouka

I was wondering if you've considered turning the striped portions of the body into glued plates. Having multiple printers, I'd love to task one printer with printing the rather large body pieces while I use another printer to handle the drawers. The problem is that unless I have multiple rolls of the same two green filaments, I can't do that. It would also be nice to reduce the print time of the body pieces by removing any filament changes.

@kunststoffmanuf

just print the stripes also in red

@aikouka

Replying to @kunststoffmanuf :

But then you couldn’t insert the stripes in after the fact. Actually, it’s easier to just grab all of the stripes portions, turn them into an assembly and pull them out to be printed separately. I did that with both striped portions. Although, I did have to file down the curled one a bit as it did not fit by default.

@RevelRob

This looks awesome!
