Stackable Painters Pyramid / Cone Standoff for Paint / Stain With Stand - No Supports

thingiverse

This is based off a previous design that I designed for myself and thought others might find them useful. Pyramids: These are designed to be scaleable to any size you want or use them as is. Their current size is 36mm round by 25mm tall. I designed them to be stable yet use a minimal amount of filament. I do however suggest using PETG or ABS if you are using them for something with significant weight. Use the print settings provided. No supports are needed. Turn off "fill gaps between walls" if you have it enabled. it is not necessary for this print and will waste filament/time. Stand: (Work in progress) This stand is designed to hold 4 cones. I would recommend printing this very slowly with a decent amount of cooling. Because the shaft is very tall and thin, this will be difficult for a inexperienced user. A finely tuned printer is highly recommended before trying to print this. To save time, I would recommend running a post processing script to change the speed at layer #80 to 25mm/s or possibly slower. This is a work in progress and should be treated as such. Stand Settings Supports: No Resolution: .1-.3 Infill: 75% for added weight Speed without post processing: The slower the better. as low as 10mm/s <b>**Warning** This will increase printing time substantially.</b> Speed with post processing: I was able to print this as fast as 100mm/s but you NEED to run a post processing script as mentioned above.
