This is a nice filament-efficient (54g) hollow egg to use for Easter or whatever other uses an egg can be used for!

Functional Polygonal Easter Egg

 

I found myself needing a rather large Easter Egg to put a larger toy in.  All of the models I could find used a ton of filament to get the internal volume that I need.  There was another polygonal egg that I liked the design of, but couldn't get it to hollow out well.  So I designed my own from scratch in Fusion, then modified it in Blender for the polygons, then created this printable egg you see here.

This egg clicks together like the classics ; )

 

The Egg:

There are 2 models.  

  1. The LARGE model has an internal volume of 88x88mm wide and 104mm tall.  Most of the model is about 2mm thick. This is 82g of filament with 2 perimeters and 15% infill.
  2. The THIN model has an internal volume of 70x70mm wide and 104mm tall.  This print is 55g of filament with 2 perimeters and 15% infill.

No supports are needed, but an external brim is useful on the top portion to ensure the foundation sticks well to the bed.
