Description
I haven't seen any snowflake designs on Thingiverse, so I thought I'd upload one.
Instructions
Print, insert tea-light/light, see the snowflake silhouettes.
Obviously, only the LED tea-lights should be placed in a plastic holder, you have been warned...
I've also uploaded a smaller version that works as a tea-light holder or napkin ring.
BTW, if you are using Makerware and want to print a single border (a la Stretchlet) find the Makerware program folder, mine is in
C:/Program Files (x86)/MakerBot
and edit the fill.csv and jitter.csv files in
conveyor/src/main/skeinforge/Replicator slicing defaults/profiles/extrusion/ABS
setting
Activate Fill False
and
Activate Jitter False
respectively. Then print one of the solid models using the high setting but change the layer height to something quicker (i.e. 2.4) and everything should work. Don't forget to re-edit the fill and jitter files for your next normal print!

I like this a lot, especially when printed with gold filament. It's my current Thing of the Week on 3DGeni.us - thanks for the great design!
Thanks.
