USA Flag

Includes, base, 2 sections of pole, threaded and the flag. Settings for the flag to print correctly. All settings are pre configured in the 3mf Set sparse infill density to 30% and sparse infill to concentric. It has to print a support layer in between the coloured sides. Failure to use these settings ,means the flag will fall apart as there is nothing holding it together. it needs a central support layer. If you loading the STL when colouring the stl it’s basically a sandwich. So you colour either side leaving the center white. This is important other wise the colours will all print separately and the flag will fall apart, the white part in the center is a support. Do not scale, again it will not print correctly it has to be a certain thickness. I spent a lot of time trial and erroring the print. also be careful removing from the build plate especially a super tack, even with the central layer the colours can start to separate if stuck well to the plate. remove from a super tack while still warm. Bending of the flag, either keep straight or add some custom bends. Heat the flag gently in a Line across the flag, and rest over the edge of a bench or table and let it slowly fall. Turn over and repeat with as many bands as you like. Remember to keep the spine of the flag straight so it can slide into the pole. The key is here gently heat and gently bend. If you bend to fast you risk separation of the layers of colour from the infill. I added 3 bends to my flags. The flag then…
