Description

Remixed this awesome design of an dragon egg from @ DoritoMojito on myminifactory: https://www.myminifactory.com/object/3d-print-dragon-egg-93134 It now fits a threaded insert in the bottom so it can be lighted from the inside. The base of the egg is designed specifically for the following parts: Battery holder https://smile.amazon.de/gp/product/B0823WK4CN/ref=ppx\_yo\_dt\_b\_asin\_title\_o04\_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Power switch https://smile.amazon.de/gp/product/B007QAJLDE/ref=ppx\_yo\_dt\_b\_asin\_title\_o05\_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Additional you need the following: 5mm LED Soldering iron and some solder CR2032 battery short wire (2.5cm) Assembly should be obvious from the pictures. Print settings: until layer 79 i used 20% infill from there to the to 0% so the light can pass through use transparent/translucent filament with 2 or 3 walls (you may try non-translucent filament with 1 wall but I haven´t tried that yet) you also need to make a hole in the middle → right click the model in Prusaslicer → add modifier Cylinder → scale it to 12mm X/Y and 16mm Z → position X/Y =0 so it sits right in the middle of the egg → right click in the cylinder → Layers and Perimeter → Bottom Layer 0 I got some issues at the top as you can see in one of the pictures, but that was probably due to the filament i used. Maybe using a little bit infill in the top are would improve it. If you like the egg you can use the LED threaded insert in one of my other design as well: https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/87307-crystal-led-light-with-battery-cr2032
