Offering to Hephaestus

I have dedicated years of my life to the pursuit of knowledge of 3d printing. I've wasted countless hours optimizing each print only to have it still fail. Finally I realized that the solution was in front of me the whole time: Praying to the gods! Having trouble with bed adhesion or layer shifting? Simply give an offering to Hephaestus and watch your prints improve (assuming he deems you worthy) This model includes a mashup / remix of multiple existing works. 1: https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/art/hephaestus-sculpture-the-god-of-forge-and-fire 2: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2990742 **Disclaimer: I do not provide any guarantee that giving offerings to any god will actually improve your prints, but it probably won't hurt to try. == Update: April 16th 2026 == I scaled everything down substantially from their original "god like" size down to a size suitable for a mere mortal's printer. I have also fixed some of the mesh issues with the offering box that impacted bed adhesion. Best to print each separately with different settings. Lastly, I added a little inset on the pillar for the statue to sit in nicely. If you have other gods you would prefer to make offerings to you could just set the base to the same diameter. I also added a shorter pillar that you could print for lesser gods. Recommended Print Settings: Statue: Highest quality possible, Gyroid Infill 15%, Tree Supports Box: 0.2 or 0.25, Grid Infill, Regular Supports Pillar: 0.2mm, Grid Infill, Regular Supports
