7 sizes of the Koch Snowflake fractal that interlock to create very interesting patterns. Designed to be super easy to print and easily fit together. The snowflakes connect with every other size larger or smaller (size 1 fits with sizes 2, 4, and 6, but not sizes 3 or 5). The natural rounding of your printer nozzle should make the pieces fit together perfectly. If not try adjusting the “X/Y hole” or “X/Y contour" setting to make just the outer perimeter of the object print smaller (0.04mm should be plenty). Scaling the model is also an option, but only scale every other sized snowflake. For the unique surface patterns (as pictured) adjust the “top and bottom skin pattern” setting to your liking. Send me photos of cool patterns you make! I want to tile my desk with these, so I'd love inspiration for what pattern to do. Happy Printing!
