Pergamino candle

This fully 3D-printable candle holder features a complex yet elegant geometry, designed to be printed flat and then assembled into a stunning cylindrical shape. The intricate structure creates a beautiful interplay of light and shadows, enhancing any space with a warm and artistic ambiance. It consists of three parts: two parchment-like pieces that are printed flat and later rolled into shape, and a sturdy base where both pieces are securely mounted. Designed to hold standard small candles, it ensures safe use without the risk of melting the plastic.

Assembly Instructions
- Pre-shape the larger parchment piece by rolling it with a rubber band for a while to help it form a natural cylinder.
- Insert the larger piece into the circular groove of the base.
- Place the smaller piece flat into the straight groove of the base.
- To secure the parts together, apply glue or, for better results, use a hot glue gun to slightly melt and fix the edges.
- Once assembled, you can remove the structure from the base to place a candle inside, light it, and then reinsert it.

3D printing settings

• Use a layer height of around 0.15 mm to ensure the flat pieces print with at least two solid layers.
• Print the parchment pieces flat to maintain their flexibility.
• No supports needed.
