Eleni’s Snowman - 7/24/21
JWizard Christmas Collection

Designed by JWizard

We are proud to offer Eleni’s Snowman as part of the JWizard Christmas Collection. Many people really like this model. It can be used in your Christmas display, given as a gift, used to design a centerpiece for your table or to conceal items within the snowman. The hat uses a screw off design. This will make it easier to print the pieces separately. Also if you choose to colorize the hat this will make the filament changes very easy!

We have included the 115mm gcode files if you wish to use them. You can print the hat using the colored hat gcode file. This will prompt you to change the filament to an alternate color and then to change it back to the original color. You can also print the hat without a color change. Also included are the original .stl files that can be sliced to whatever size you want and whatever color changes you wish to apply to the snowman. The snowman’s eyes, nose, mouth and buttons were painted with black and orange acrylic paint.

The following Files are included:

115mm Snowman body and hat Pre-Sliced Gcode files (280% larger than original stl files):

small body snowman.gcode
small hat color snowman.gcode
small hat no color snowman.gcode

Very small .Stl files to be sized as desired (remember size both parts with the same proportions so that the hat fits on the body correctly.)

Idea’s:

It might interesting to print your snowman with different colors. You might also define different color regions with the snowman's body. Matte colors hide the seams best. You might want to experiment with silk colors as well.

Slicing/Printing Instructions:

Use a Random Seam so you do not create a seam line

At .2 quality, at the near bottom of the model may be a small printing imperfection due to the very small angle. This will not be visible. If you increase the layer width, you will decrease the imperfection. We printed our models at .2 quality layer height to obtain better overall quality. We were satisfied with the prints with a non-visible imperfection.
