Eleni’s Halloween Pumpkin – 9/22/22

Eleni’s Halloween Pumpkin – 9/22/22
Designed by JWizard

Thank you for choosing the Eleni’s Halloween Pumpkin!
Add Eleni’s Halloween Pumpkin to your Halloween decorations. Insert a battery operated puck light and then you have a lit pumpkin for your window or table. The pumpkin looks awesome and your friends and guests will love it! DO NOT USE ANY ELECTRIC LIGHTS SINCE THIS IS A HAZARD. DO NOT USE ANY CANDLES SINCE THIS IS A FIRE HAZARD. Only use battery operated puck lights. Check out all the photos!

There are 2 variations to our pumpkin. One of the pumpkin covers fit precisely into the hole. We call this pumpkin top inlayed. The other pumpkin cover overlaps the pumpkin and is like a beany hat and the word beany is in the name of the .stl file. The covers were not designed to fit tightly on the pumpkin. Set 1 uses more support material than Set 2. When you print, print out either set 1 or set 2. The printing instructions are below.

The following files are included:

Set 1

Pumpkin-bottom-with-ledge.stl
Pumpkin-top-inlayed.stl

Set 2

Pumpkin-bottom-no-ledge.stl
Pumpkin-top-beany.stl

Photos:

All pumpkin photos are 200% the original size.

Materials used to create model in photos:

Overture Orange PLA - pumpkin created at 200% of original size

StrongHero3d Marble Rainbow PLA

StrongHero3d EX52 Rainbow PLA

Ideas:

This pumpkin can be scaled proportionally to a larger size on all axes. It also can be scale only on the z-axis to create a taller pumpkin. If you scale the x or y axis this will create an oval design.

You can use any PLA filament. You might wish to choose a shiny silk, multi-colored PLA filament. Our photos will give you an idea of what you can expect using different types of filament.

You can print the pumpkin in one color and the cover in another color. This will give the appearance of a hat. You can paint the stem of the pumpkin. You can pause the print to change the filament when printing the stem.

This pumpkin could be the centerpiece for a table. It would look nice lit or unlit. This pumpkin should only be used as a decorative element. No foods, liquids or chemicals should be put inside the pumpkin.
