Update 12/2/23

• Updated the anchor model with tighter tolerances. Results my vary depending on printer so scale as needed.
• Added a blank Lithophane that can be used instead of a second image if you don't want the ornament to be double sided! Can be printed flat.

This is a very simple double sided Lithophane ornament using one of the lights from your tree! The ornament spins easily and there is a spot for a picture on both sides. Or you can leave the back open/print a blank Lithophane if you only want one image.

Ornament/Anchor

• I printed these at .2 layer height
• The bottom half of the ornament may need a tiny bit of support as there's an overhang where the Lithophane sits. It's less than a gram of filament but you may be able to get away without it depending on your printer.
• The top half of the ornament will print perfectly without supports.
• Once printed, just put one of the lights from your tree through the hole and then secure it with the anchor.

Lithophane

• The Lithophane's can be created here https://lithophanemaker.com/Lithophane%20Tag.html
• Upload an image and generate the Lithophane using the settings below
• The Lithophane must be printed vertically on its edge as shown in the model images.
• Any lighter colored filament should work but white will work best. I used normal white PLA
• I printed mine at .15 layer height, 100% infill, 4 walls, and a wall speed of about 30mm/s with a large brim to help with adhesion. You can go even lower and slower for better quality/adhesion.
• If you're having issues with adhesion you can also add a bit of support.
• Once printed, they should press fit right into the ornament. If they are a bit loose just add some glue.
