Hypocycloid Christmas Tree

Hypocycloid Christmas Tree

Description

My third annual Christmas Tree design. 2017: [Futuristic Christmas Tree](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2702395) 2018: [Fractal Christmas Tree (Kochmas Tree)](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3234168) 2019: [Hypocycloid Christmas Tree](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4022593) 2020: [Gosper Christmas Tree](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4703466) The Hypocycloid Christmas Tree is formed by sweeping out 5-hypocycloids inside of a 6-hypocycloid, as their size tapers to zero. The two versions use 2 or 3 5-hypocycloids respectively. This design uses the pattern of the [Hypocycloid Vase](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3967041), but tapers to zero instead of staying constant. Vase mode is recommended. Can be lit with a tea light when printed in vase mode with no bottom.
