Description

PDF

This is a small nest in which to place an egg. The photo shows the nest with a real brown egg. 

Scale for other sized eggs. I put a real egg in it from the fridge, it generated quite a few laughs from family members! 

Egg Size:

At 100% scale these perfectly fit a normal chicken egg size of 53mm tall and 43.08mm wide as pictured. 

Easter!

I think this will be a fun thing especially for displaying colorful Easter Eggs, or to place Easter Eggs for a hunt so they don't roll around.

Palworld Nest

I made these originally for my Palword eggs as shown. I have also shared the common egg design here in another listing. These are both for non commercial use. The files cannot be rehosted on other platforms or remixed.

Important Print Settings 

Use a light brown color. The key to this 'nest' appearance is to use a fuzzy skin so it is not smooth and looks rough like a bird laid down real straw. The model already includes some designed bumps all around the surface on all sides to add larger textures. However, the real benefit comes with adding a fuzzy skin smaller texture as well to make it look like straw. Showing layers lines here is a good thing as it wants to look rough and built up. The layer height should be a .25 layer height. No supports. A larger nozzle also helps and I print these with a .6 nozzle to add even more roughness. 

In Prusalicer under print settings/layers and perimeters/go to the bottom and use these settings:
Fuzzy Skin - all surfaces
fuzzy skin thickness - .3mm
fuzzy skin point distance - .8mm
