Three 3D-Printable Tombstone Tea-Light Holders Use a Fuzzy-Skin Finish

Reading lead

Maxx_Design has shared a set of three tombstone-shaped tea-light holders intended for 3D printing, with an alternative design that omits crosses. The holders are described as fitting round tea lights up to 40 mm in diameter and use a two-piece construction. The print guidance specifies orienting the tombstones at a 45-degree angle; the base plates use 150% flow and a Hilbert-curve pattern to create the fuzzy top texture. The lower portions of the stones should be printed without fuzzy skin so the parts fit together properly. The files include preconfigured profiles with custom fuzzy-skin settings and manual supports. The material also notes a commercial license via Patreon, but does not provide print-test results or further details on licensing terms.

Three different spooky tombstone tea-light holders, with an alternative version available without crosses. Accommodates round tea lights up to 40mm diameter. Two-piece construction with fuzzy skin texture. Stones print at 45° angle for optimal surface quality. Base plates use 150% flowrate with Hilbert curve pattern for the fuzzy top layer; lower stone portions must print without fuzzy skin for proper assembly fit. Pre-configured profiles with custom fuzzy skin settings and manual supports provided. Commercial license available via Patreon. By Maxx Design
