I have prepared a simple folding Christmas star in Origami style. It is printed in a flat shape. Two identical parts are folded into a four-pointed star, and then they are connected with a joining piece. To ensure successful printing and assembly, please follow these instructions:

PRINTING

  1. Print two star pieces. These are two identical parts. I can recommend using PLA filament.
  2. Very important and essential are perfectly aligned bed and balanced first layer height. In some parts of the model (the folds), I rely solely on the first layer.
  3. At the folds, the direction of the fibers in the first layer should not be parallel to the fold, but perpendicular or close to it. I recommend setting the "Archimedean Chords" or something similar for the bottom layer. See my gCode file (now is really uploaded, sorry for missing).

ASSEMBLY

  1. Fold along line A (see the illustration) from the notches toward the center. Make sure to fold it toward the front side.
  2. Fold the diagonal lines B toward the backside.
  3. Fold the remaining lines C (the "wing" lines of the star tips) also toward the backside, ensuring they overlap.
  4. Check all the folds to ensure they are equally stiff.
  5. Assemble all four tips by connecting two "wings" at a time so that they snap together nicely according to the reference photos. Each hole is designed to fit one stud, which should snap in with a "click" sound.
  6. Do the same with second part of star.
  7. Rotate the two star pieces 45° relative to each other and connect them using the connector piece. This step is a bit experimental and might be improved in futureby a different solution, but it has worked well for me. It takes a bit of effort to assemble, but once complete, it’s quite sturdy.

Your reward will be a lightweight quite large 3D star with a perfect surface on all sides, without the need for supports (except the connection part).


If something goes wrong, you'll end up like me, as seen in the pictures below. :-)
