Celtic Cross Necklace/Tree Ornament/Jewelry Piece

thingiverse

This is a Celtic Cross that can be used as a tree ornament, jewelry, or anything really as it has a small hoop at the top. . edit: 12/30/2012 I have added a lower poly count version for those who may have had issues with the higher poly count version. I didn't with 8 gigs of ram and Cura but some have with other configurations (1 or 2 gigs of ram) and other slicing programs (slic3r). edit: 10/12/2014 - Something I noticed in the makes is that the round orb in the middle is missing which is odd. I never had that issue when I printed it. edit: 01/18/2018 - Thanks to cr1cr1 he found out what was wrong with the orb in the middle and that is it is floating. I will update this if I can find the original but for now use supports. edit: 01/19/2018 - I have added the updated file that puts the inner orb where it belongs and should now print fine and the file is smaller too. Instructions 200mm so scale to fit your needs and this should be able to be made using a CNC router/mill as well. Basically you can use a 3D Printer or a CNC router/mill so you have even more machine and material choices. . For the ultimate way of doing this (if you do not have a CNC, and only have a 3d Printer (like a Makerbot/RepRap)) -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AS7eJw0Im_c&list=UL I would suggest no greater than a .4mm nozzle and really a .35mm or .25mm is better due to the intricate pattern work.
