Print Profile(2)


Description
These are similar in style to those made by L3go, but they are completely new models optimized for 3D printing with NO support.
This set includes the narrow stem that can be held in a big fig hand. It includes a modeled in place support, which is clean and easy to remove.
- 95343 Minifigure, Utensil Bucket 1 x 1 x 1 Tapered with Handle Holders
- 24855 Plant Flower Stem with Bar Holder, Bar, and 3 Stems
- 3742 Plant Flower Small
- 24866 Plate, Round 1 x 1 with Flower Edge (5 Petals)
All parts include chamfers and angles for easy print without support.

The studs are true while the socket/mating surface has a 0.5 degree draft. This provides attachment with just enough friction so the parts don't spin or fall apart easily.
This print profile includes the basic bucket, older style stem, older style flower and newer style flowers all with the 0.5 draft. I have non-draft for a looser fit and 1.0 draft for a tighter fit. Your settings and filament may fit differently so I will be adding those additional profiles.
These are sized at 5.42:1 relative to standard sized bricks. The stud size is 26.02 mm.
Size this file to the following ratios to match up with other big brick projects you may have.
Use the following percentages - as guide based on the stud diameter :
| Stud diameter mm | Ratio | % |
| 26.02 | 5.42 | 1 |
| 24 | 5 | 0.9224 |
| 19.2 | 4 | 0.7379 |
| 14.4 | 3 | 0.5534 |
Of course, you may need to tweak them to your size.
I have some additional flowers and parts that I will publish as separate items. If there are some parts you might like, please let me know.
Print settings, I recommend
1. quality - - the arc fitting and auto circle compensation options are selected. These will make your circles more accurate and fit together better.
2. Ironing – top surfaces with 28% infill for the old style flowers
3. Strength - 3 walls AND bottom shell thickness to 1mm
4. Outer brim - only for the stem plate.
Using a smooth plate gives the old flowers a nice uniform surface finish! Highly recommend.
…. You might be wondering why did I pick this size/ratio? I initially started this project with the goal of putting a flower or two on a chair /phone holder previously printed from here (MakerWorld) which has 26 mm studs…
HOWEVER, as I dug into the project, making some additional parts, I found the relative stud spacing on that chair is not accurate… 😕. So in addition to some other parts already done. A chair is in the work that integrates and scales accurately.
