Material: Recycled PETG, ideal for light diffusion. Height: Scalable to desired size. The model displayed is 24 inches tall. Printing: Vase mode on Gigabot X XLT with a 0.8mm nozzle, deliberately over extruded at 1.3mm for increased wall sturdiness. Base: No solid bottom layers, printed in true vase mode to conserve material and reduce weight. Layer Height: 0.6033, carefully selected to provide a good balance between print time and detail resolution. Print Speed: Starts at 40mm/s, slows to 30mm/s as the height increases to allow for proper cooling, and decreases to 20mm/s towards the narrow top. Print Time: Takes approximately 6 hours to print a 24-inch tree, with variability based on size adjustments and slicer configurations. Instructions: Ensure no top layers are set to allow for continuous spiral printing. Christmas lights can be taped inside with clear packaging tape to achieve the illuminated effect as shown.
