Vase mode Jack-o'-lantern - Halloween pumpkin lamp

Model Overview & Print Notes

If you're running late with your Halloween decoration or just don't want to use up half a spool of filament for a decent sized pumpkin then these models were made for you!     I've designed these Jack-o'-lanterns as a late entry for the Printables Halloween Flash Contest. They are perfect to store Halloween candy and interestingly because of their thin walled nature they work as “inverse” lanterns. To avoid a the unintentional extra spookiness use an electric candle. :)   The main part of each pumpkin is optimized for vase mode. Print them with a 0.8 mm nozzle or -as I did- with a 0.4 mm nozzle using 0.8 mm line width. Keep the layer height relatively low to avoid the separation of perimeters around the mouth and eye areas. With my presliced gcodes and prepared project files each pumpkin can be printed in roughly two hours. The rest of the lanterns can be printed normally (the stem needs no infill) and should be glued in place.
