To 3D print your Gryffindor candle holder, I will provide you with generic parameters for both SLA and FDM printing. These parameters may need fine tuning depending on the specific printer and material you are using.

SLA printing for Fine Details:

Layer Resolution:

High Definition: 25-50 microns to capture all the delicate details, such as watermarks or the lion.

Orientation and Supports:

Optimal Orientation: tilts the parts to minimize the amount of supports in the visible areas.

Supports: Add lightweight, easily removable supports where needed, especially for delicate structures.

Post-Processing:

Cleaning: Use isopropyl alcohol to clean parts after printing.

UV Curing: Post cure parts under UV light following the resin manufacturer's recommendations for proper hardness and durability.

FDM Printing for Larger and Structural Parts:

Print Quality:

Layer Height: 0.1-0.2 mm for good surface quality.

Extrusion Width: Generally, a width equal to the nozzle diameter, such as 0.4 mm, is used.

Temperature:

Extruder: Approximately 200°C for PLA and 230-250°C for ABS.

Hot bed: 50-60°C for PLA and 90-110°C for ABS.

Print Speed:

General: 40-60 mm/s is a good starting point.

Details: reduce speed to 20-30 mm/s for finer details.

Infill (Infill):

Density: 15-20% for decorative parts is generally sufficient.

Pattern: honeycomb or rectilinear patterns are good for a good mix of strength and material use efficiency.

Bed Adhesion:

Brim or Raft: May be necessary to improve adhesion and reduce warping.

Supports:

Required for: areas such as the candle holder arch or the lion, if printed vertically or at an angle.

Remember to test print and adjust these parameters according to the results and specifications of your chosen printing material. You may need to make some adjustments to optimize print quality and ease of part assembly.
