Diamond Christmas Ball Design 2

**ABOUT THE DESIGN**
This is a new variation on my Christmas Balls with Integrated Stems. It may be a little challenging to print. The key is to get the speed, temperature and flow right for your particular printer/filament combo so the stem prints cleanly at the narrowest point.

I printed this in Matterhackers Translucent Red. It's a nice balance between translucency and reflectivity. For an opaque filament, I'd use a multi-color PLA (like Matterhackers Quantum) or a medium toned silky PLA (gold, red, just use anything that's not really light or dark). Either type of filament would show off the facets nicely.

**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 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 110, 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 and adding custom settings for the base of the ball that printed it 0.8 mm thick. You can do this by adding a support blocker to the bottom and giving it custom settings of 0.4 mm. Cura adds the two and prints the area within the blocker at 0.8 mm.

*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 really relied on the supports for build plate adhesion. I used a brim, but I set it to 3.2 mm gap from the print so it would touch the supports but not the ornament.

*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: 45 Degrees

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

Diamond Ripple Vase 

A decorative vase made in Fusion 360.  There may be issues printing in spiral mode, so I just printed with 5 walls, zero infill, and no top layers.
