Jellyfish Wind Chime

Jellyfish Wind Chime

Ocean-inspired customizable wind chime for garden, patio, or home decor. A visually appealing and great-sounding wind chime that can be adjusted to your liking. Multiple variants of some parts are included to prevent repetition and create a more natural and visually interesting appearance.

The parts are scalable down to 50%. The photos of the printed model were actually taken at 50% scale. When using 75% scale or smaller, I recommend using the separate head bottom model: "Jelly_head_bot_thread_offset" so the threads have enough tolerance for easy assembly.

Features

• Different model variants available

• Multiple mounting solutions

• Sounds great for a 3D-printed wind chime

• Scalable down to 50%

• Custom supports available

Design & Printing Details

Recommended Settings:

• Layer height: 0.2 mm

• Infill: 10–20%

• Supports: Not necessary, some parts have custom supports

• Print orientation: As provided in the files

• Material: PETG recommended

• Nozzle: 0.4 mm

• Bed adhesion: Brim reccomended for some parts, see print files

To make sure the long thin parts print successfully, I designed custom supports that are easy to print and easy to remove. Use a flush cutter to remove the supports. I recommend printing the long thin parts, such as the jelly twists, one at a time to ensure optimal quality.

Assembly instructions

The head assembly consists of two separate parts that can be assembled almost seamlessly using threads. When adjusting the scale, please keep in mind that it is recommended to use the separate offset model to ensure enough thread tolerance.

There are multiple variations of some models. The head contains a total of 17 mounting holes, allowing you to arrange the parts however you like.

Update

I noticed some print files were quite large, so I optimized them to reduce their size and improve speed and usability without losing any detail.

Thank You / Enjoy Printing!
