Description

Ornament base for the Christmas tree that you can finish with your existing common bricks. Some examples are in the photos attached.

 

Arch has studs for additional decoration while the base offers 4x4 size. Bottom also allows expansion with additional bricks, however, in order to make the ornament sturdy enough I needed to sacrifice full compatibility.

 

Best printed with silk filament, but works with ordinary PLA as well. Note that I was unsuccessful with PET-G on my A1 mini - the mounting holes on the base plate caused problems.

 

0.12 mm step and 0.4 nozzle.

 

I hope it works for you - this is my first model posted and result of my first month in 3D printing, including modeling in Fusion 360.

 

Would be glad to see your creations in the comments!

good, i only wish there was a way to keep it from separating. even putting a layer under it it still separates even though it cant completely come apart.

HI. Did the prongs go into the plate holes? What filament did you use? Maybe it's stiff and you need to center it and push more firmly. I hope it will work for you - I have no issues with separating. How do the bricks fit?

i had to use a brim on the square tiles but not sure if that was just the first brand I used I didn’t try it with a diff filament without a brim. but love this print! My nephews and nieces are obsessed with legos so I’ve been printing up a storm. I don’t really have much legos but tested and works great!

My 11yr old made a low poly "round" ornament with your ornament base. Nicely done... Merry Christmas!

Yes, I used 0.4 mm nozzle, only vertical step is reduced from default .2 to .12.

I have A1 mini so printer profile is only for A1 and A1 mini. However, there are 2 step files available for download - one for base plate and one for the arch. Try importing them to your "new project" in Bambu lab. Try setting 0,12 layer height. I hope it works for you.

Great little piece. My L3G0 people fit nicely on them. I printed 4 for my kids in Bambu Basic Green PLA on my X1C. I will definitely print more for gifts! Printing from Bambu Handy, the file prints one piece at a time and thus will only fit 2 sets per plate. I advise loading in Studio and changing to print by layer to accomodate more pieces per plate.

Thanks for the suggestion! I had problems with printing by layer - so I created print by object plate. Maybe it was an unlucky coincidence since I didn't try again. The base plate fits inside the ring - that will give the best yield IMO. Please, consider boosting my design :) Thanks!

Printed out well with PETG, no jumps between pieces, so minimal stringing. Bad fit with my lego:(

Can you please try with PLA? Tolerances are tight and I needed to set dimensions with trial and error. With PLA I didn't get any complaints about compatibility after fine tuning the model. PETG failed prior I would manage to test the compatibility.

Much better fit with PLA. It seems like PETG contracted a miniscule bit after printing.
