Before last Christmas, I designed this 3D Christmas candy cane via Tinkercad.

I 3D printed it.

Then Brian painted everything with Acrylic colors green, white, and vermillion.

He hung it on our Christmas tree once everything had dried.

I printed it with OVERTURE Matte PLA Filament,1.75mm 3D Printer Filament, 1kg Spool (Matte White).

There are numerous filament colors available on the market. Use your imagination when selecting colors!

Here are the steps which I took to print it:

I sliced the file with Cura software and then exported it to an SD card.
I used soap and warm water to clean the glass bed, then dried it with a paper towel.
Reinstalled the printer’s glass bed.
After that, I checked to see if everything was working on my Ender 3 Pro 3D printer.
I levelled the bed after placing the filament on the spool holder.
I put the SD card in the printer. I turned on the printer, did an auto home, and set the temperature.
By printing the chep bed file, I tested the printer’s bed level.
I printed the file from TIF once it was ready to print.
I kept an eye on the printer while it was printing.
I waited for the printer to cool down before removing the print.
The printer was auto-homed, and then turned the power button off.
I removed the SD card from the printer.
