I wanted to make my own version of an old school giant Christmas light. They're designed to print with no supports and if you throw a color change in right after the base finishes then you can get the multi color effect. The bulb portion is designed to print with no infill (basically like vase mode).
There is a hole modeled in for a 5mm LED. The bulb portion is translucent so the LED diffuses nicely.

Yes

.2

10%

I used a thin two layer raft to ensure that there was proper bed adhesion for the entire print since the lip of the base is thin.
