Inspired by the Minifig headgear, I designed Brick element #20695 as a classic Halloween pumpkin decoration aka. Jack O'Lantern. Named "Brick O' Lantern," it’s the perfect Halloween decor for every AFOL.
Model Details:
The model consists of two parts: the pumpkin and a lid (screw top). The pumpkin is currently available in two versions:
- Without a hole at the bottom: For those who want it as authentic as possible. There is only a small indentation for the tealight at the base.
- With a hole at the bottom: For those who prefer practicality. There is only a small indentation for the tealight at the base and the hole allows you to thread fairy-light LEDs or easily turn the tealight on and off without needing to remove it each time.
Used Material:
- Pumpkin: Sunlu PLA+ Orange or Bambu Lab PLA Basic Pumpkin Orange (10301)
- Stem: Bambu Lab PLA Basic Bambu Green (10501)
Additional Material:
For the best result and an authentic atmosphere, I recommend using one of these light sources:
- LED tealight, preferably in warm yellow (KC008) or warm white (KC018)
- LED fairy-light string: I used something like this
- Short LED strip in warm yellow or with effect LEDs
| Do not use candles or any other hot light sources! Severe fire hazard! |
Printing
- Pumpkin: In the provided print files, I marked the necessary areas with tree supports and slightly expanded the base. After printing several copies, I found that support is only really needed around the mouth area. For the top eye section, basic bridging is more than enough. The upper section is designed so that no additional support is necessary.
- Lid: I’ve also configured all the necessary settings for the lid. No prime tower or support is required. It can be printed without an AMS by simply adjusting one single color change at layer #60 (I’ve uploaded a version for this).
Assembly:
Assembly is very simple: turn on the light source, place it inside, and screw the lid on. Done!
You’ll get the best result with a warm yellow LED tealight. Fairy-light LEDs also create a beautiful effect.
