  Our Model
  Inspiration Source	Tutankhamun's Golden Mask         Tutankhamun's Golden Mask is an important artifact discovered in Tutankhamun's tomb in 1922, now housed in the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. It features cloisonné enamel work, adorned with gold, inlaid with carnelian circles, and edged with turquoise and lapis lazuli. The front center of the mask features the protective deities of Upper and Lower Egypt: the vulture goddess Nekhbet and the cobra goddess Wadjet, each inlaid with obsidian eyes and semi-precious stones and glass	Amulet Shield of Bastet or Sekhmet         The core feature of the amulet shield of Bastet or Sekhmet combines the head of the feline goddess with the broad collar common in ancient Egypt. The god's head often features a solar disk and cobra headdress, and elements of human tripartite wigs are visible under the lion's mane. Made from various materials, including gold and Egyptian blue, it is a small treasure with both decorative and religious functions

  • The front of the Tutankha-cat Crown replaces the original design's vulture goddess Nekhbet and cobra goddess Wadjet with cute cat-bodied cat-faced statues
  • The "S"-shaped lines on top of the Tutankha-cat Crown can be directly bent

Required Materials

1. 80-mesh gauze fabric, any size, for cutting into strips to be sandwiched between small components to connect them

   

2. Several 8mm diameter x 1.5mm thick magnets

   4 magnets are needed for each necklace; several magnets are needed to hold the gauze fabric onto the build plate

Printing and Production Method

1. The 3mf file has pre-set pause layers, print directly until it pauses

   

2. Cover the paused layer with the cut gauze fabric strips and secure them with several magnets, as shown in the diagram below

   

3. Continue printing until finished, as shown in the diagram below

   

   After removing the model, gently bend the connections between the small components to make the model flexible

Post-processing

1. Use flush cutters or similar tools to trim off excess gauze fabric

2. For the Bastet Amulet Shield Necklace, glue the magnets into the reserved slots

   Note:

   · Pay attention to the correct orientation of the magnets to ensure opposite poles attract

   · Magnets can be quite smooth, you can first sand the magnet surfaces to increase roughness and improve friction between the magnet and the slot when gluing

   

3. For the Tutankha-cat Crown, distinguish between front and back: the front has two complete pins, and the back has two incomplete pins
