Using melted thermoplastic to look like melting candle wax is a very rewarding experience.

This coaster holder is what your candles wish they could be (might want to ask them, just to be safe.) Not only does it fit well with your other Halloween decorations, it works with the whole of Autumn as well! I've made some coasters to go with it, but feel free to use your own!
In order to accommodate various printer setups, there are several variations of the holder. Some versions have an image in the middle while others do not, and there is a split version that can be printed in two parts, allowing for easier color contrast on printers without multi-material.
There are 11 candles in the setup, so you will need to print 11 flames and 11 wicks. There are four flame types, feel free to print whichever you like.
The middle area where the coasters rest has a max diameter of 100mm, so any coasters you have that are smaller than 100mm will fit (for reference, the included ones are 96mm.) The base of the holder has a diameter of 178mm, so it will fit within the print area of the Prusa Mini (if my math is correct, of course.)
I have included MMU3 profiles for both the holder and the coasters in order to make customizing & tweaking them easier. For some reason, using the MMU paint function on the coasters makes them slice weird, so the profile I made uses special versions to make them function better.
Please let me know what you think, happy printing, and Happy Halloween!!!!
