Happy Year of the Dragon!

I present a customizable Year of the Dragon decoration. You can scale them as you want but remember to scale all parts.

You can combine all parts as you like. There are two versions of each charm for maximum number of possible combinations. I made two print profiles, one for prints with one hanger and one for prints with two hangers. Select the correct print profile and combine them for your personalized decoration.

If you do not have an AMS you can still print this with two colours as shown. You have to change filament at around layer 5 but please double check in your slicer to see which layer works best for your printer.

P.S. The Chinese character Fú (福) means "fortune" or "good luck." If it is displayed upside-down, it means “good luck arrives.”

File Namings

The only difference between files in the raw-folders are the number of hangers. The number of hangers are indicated by the file names as followed:

• filename_1h (top hanger only for last charm)
• filename_2h (hangers at bottom and top)

Connector Ring

If you have no string or jump rings on hand you can print spring rings to connect the charms. They are printed without support. You should be able to split the ring apart with your nails or a knife. If you have problems printing them try to set down the layer hight and print speed.

Tassels / Pompon / Quasten

They can be made pretty easy. You need:

• Cord / string
• Scissor
• Someting to wrap the cord around

Here is a tutorial on how to make these beautiful Tassels:
