Death Star - Shelled
Description
I took Tato_713's Death Star (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3432933) and made it hollow, scaled down to 20mm and added a ridge to either side that fit together to hold it shut. Can either glue it or just leave it and open/close when you want. My niece wanted a tree topper for her BF, so I printed this (5 days approximately in total). Idea is to put colour changing LED strip inside with the lights facing inwards to make it glow. I also added a cone behind the death laser thing for sperate lights changing colour out of sync of the main lights, plus a cone for sticking on the tree. Basically remade the Hallmark Tree Topper Death Star. Extra parts not included... just uploading the shell. I printed each half in high quality. I had them face down with tree supports inside with brims on it and supports. WARNING: Sometimes the TOP gave errors when slicing. Rotate it a bit (still flat on glass) and try again... seems random but does eventually slice. I also had to move the rear clip holding the glass down on my Ender 3 v2 because the fan nicked it a few times on initial layers, so just a warning. I don't work with 3D often so, took a while to get this working without errors when slicing which is why I'm uploading it to save people some hassle. Made the walls thin enough for light to be seen if printed with while PLA. But still solid and great detail came out.
