Printing
I printed the base body with 2 perimeters at 0.5mm and 30% cubic infill. Depending on your experience and printer you can print the antennas in vase mode with relatively thick perimeters (like 0.6-0.8mm) or as you would normally print a model in this size. I also tried the fullcontroll.xyz “pin support challenge” model with a 3.5mm pin at 40mm length and a 12mm diameter sphere. This also turned out pretty nice, especially the sphere compared to normal slicing. But try this at your own, since fullcontrol is still experimental.
I used paint-on support for the overhang in the middle hole of the basy body and the rounded corners on the bottom side. But you can of course just choose to auto-detect supports, this will work also pretty good. The support are pretty small and will improve your print quality quite a lot, so I would strongly recommend to use supports.
The support block is to prevent sacking of the base with time and a somewhat heavy tealight holder in it. You can of course model your own or just leave it. I just think it looks a bit nicer with the support. I also uploaded a step of all models so you can also go ahead and model a support block right into the base body, if you want to.
After printing
Take some all-purpose glue or super glue and attach the antennas to the base body. Now your done!
The diameter of the hole in the base body at 100% scale is 52mm and the distance from the top to the heel in the base body right below the hole is about 39mm. This should give you an idea, what tealight/candle holder will fit. You can of course also scale the model accordingly. But the size at 100% fits pretty good in my opinion for it not beeing to bulky and also not to small. I modelled it after a glas tealight holder we bought beforehand. You can of course also print one, if you struggle to find a fitting one. But I think glas just looks nicer and you have to keep the temperatures from the candle in mind when printing your own candle holder.
