Introducing Heartwood Elegance, a uniquely refined hollow heart that masterfully combines artistic design with reinforced engineering. Printed in Silk PLA at 230°C, this heart features a checkerboard pattern of internal pockets enhanced with tree-like reinforcements. These reinforcements not only provide mechanical strength for reliable hand-held durability but also add an appealing aesthetic touch. Perfect as a decorative keepsake or a unique gift, this design ensures both beauty and resilience.


Have an idea or suggestions to improve the model ? Feel free to ask <3 !

 

Versions Available:

  • Smooth-Corner Version:
    • Each internal pocket is finished with smooth, rounded corners, achieved through fillets/chamfers. This version offers a softer, more polished look and feel.
  • Standard Version:
    • This variant maintains sharp, crisp corners for the internal pockets, providing a more geometric and defined aesthetic.
       

As I got asked to make a bigger base for the smooth heart + one heart cut in half so we can see the tree inside, here it is : BiggerBase_SmoothHeart.3mf and Heart_inHalf.3mf

 

Settings:

Infill:

  • 10% for all parts, including the checkerboard pattern and the heart’s walls
  • The tree-shaped internal reinforcements are also printed at 10%, providing the ideal balance between strength and lightness.

Supports:

  • No supports are required for this model. [If you increase the scale, you may need some supports although (overhangs) ! ]
