Diwali Diya

prusaprinters

<p>I built this diya emblem for my kids to share at school for diwali. They ended up hanging it on the door.</p><p>The model consists of 4 pieces.&nbsp;</p><p>3 of these are for the flame to make it multicolor. They stack in order (out→ middle → inner). I split them out to give the color variations in the fire. These pieces can be glued together if you have some super glue handy. I didn't so I used clear tape.</p><p>The base piece is for the base (duh). It has a raised design which can be printed in a different color [I use cura's post process extension for change filament].</p><p>The original model is around 100mm wide and 52mm tall. The height is around 1.6mm.</p><p>I printed the model by scaling it to 250%, I had to put it at 45% on the print bed to fit in the extended width [screenshot attached]. Please remember that while scaling , don ot scale the Z height. only X and Y should suffice.</p><p>I also added high tolerance flames for the folks who want to scale it, because the tolerance also multiplies when you scale and it leaves ugly gaps.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The printed model in the picture was printed using 0.6mm nozzle and 0.3 mm layer height. I used PETG and Silk PLA whichever color was available at the time.</p><p>Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or comments !</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The inspriation of this model came from a bunch of images I saw on google search.&nbsp;</p>
