Whatchamacallit Ornament Suncatcher

###Not to be Sold
**I'm sharing my files so that you can make them for yourselves or give them away as gifts. I hope you enjoy them. I do not authorize sale of my work by anyone. Please don't ask me.**

###What is it?
This is part of a series of designs that were originally intended as Christmas tree ornaments and I later found also made great suncatchers for any time of year (when printed with transparent filament/resin). This is the first in the series to be published.

Beyond that, what is it? Well, it's kind of a snowflake pattern (5 points instead of 6), kind of a swirl, and looks a little like an octopus, only with five legs. A pentapus? Anyway, other than that, it's just a cool geometric design that I enjoy looking at.

###How to Hang it
I've included two small, well hidden loops behind one of the arms so you can tie coat thread on them and hang it up. See the detail photo included above. They are really small and very well hidden.

###Print Time
Depending on the wall thickness, these printed in 2-3 hours for me.

###Print Settings
*Thickness*
If you want to use these as Christmas ornaments, I recommend trying to print these with 1 line (0.4mm) walls. I had good luck with that in the Hatchbox Transparent Red, but I needed to make the walls with 2 lines (0.8mm) to get a good print from the TTYT3D Silky Red. I set the top/bottom thickness to 0.3mm.

You probably have your printer set up to print 1.2mm walls and top/bottom thickness. Don't use those settings for this design unless you plan to use it as a paperweight. If you forget to change them, cancel the print and start over.

*Flow*
I increased the flow to 110% for the outer walls and 105% for the inner.

*Infill*
This doesn't need any infill. Seriously. Don't add it unless you want to use this as a paperweight.

*Speed*
I print the first layer at 18mm/second. That makes sure that the complicated design gets good bed adhesion without a raft or brim. It also adds less time to the print and less clean-up than using a raft or a brim. If you have a cold bed, you might need the raft or brim anyway.

For all other layers, I use:
* 30mm/second outer wall speed
* 40mm/second inner wall speed
* 60mm/second overall speed

Double Diamond Christmas Ball

###About the Design
This is a new variation on my Christmas Balls with Integrated Stems and diamond patterns.

###Not To Be Sold
**I'm sharing my files so that you can make them for yourselves or give them away as gifts. I hope you enjoy them. I do not authorize sale of my work by anyone. Please don't ask me.**

###Resizing
These should scale up well, but I'm not sure how much smaller you could print them using a consumer FDM printer. Using a resin printer, you could probably print them much smaller.

###Print Time
About 4.5 hours.

**PRINT SETTINGS**
The trickiest parts to print is the top of the stems. Using FDM, if you don't temp, speed, flow, and cooling right, the thin parts of the stem will melt as you print. Thinner walls help. If that's not enough, try increasing the layer height. I decreased the print temp from my usual 200 to 190 for this, decreased the flow from 115 to 105, and increased the outer wall speed from 20 to 30 mm/sec. That was enough to go from stem that was molten goo to one that printed perfectly.

*Thickness*

* Layer thickness: .15 mm
* Wall thickness: 0.4 – 0.8 mm.

I had the best results using Cura setting the default width to 0.4 mm with an alternate extra wall. 

*Infill*
This does not need any infill. JUST DON'T DO IT.

*Speed*
* Outer Wall: 30 mm/sec
* Inner Wall: 30 mm/sec
* Top/Bottom Speed: 30 mm/sec
* Travel Speed: 50 mm/sec

*Build Plate Adhesion*
I relied on the supports for build plate adhesion. 

*Supports*
You will probably need supports for both bed adhesion and the overhang on the first few layers. You shouldn't need supports for the loop at the top. Adding them would just increase the chances the supports broke and caused the print to fail. 

* Support Structure: Normal
* Support Placement: Touching Buildplate
* Support Overhang Angle: 49 Degrees

I added a support blocker 75 mm x 75 mm x 110 mm set 15 mm above the build plate so that the supports would only be added to the bottom of the ornament.
