Easter egg holders.
Includes OpenScad source, so you can make your own custom versions.
See "How_to_Meshmixer_Voronoi.txt" for making your own holey models.

Before you print, measure your egg diameter where you want it to rest on the holder and make your model match. Make it match by either editing the *.scad and making a new *.stl file, or by scaling it in your slicer.

These models have been tuned to allow printing without rafts or automatically generated support, so that they print well on my low cost printer. If your printer is like mine, use EggHolder_group4_1.with.custom.support.stl instead of EggHolder_group4_1.stl. I found that EggHolder_group4_1 required sanding to clean up the surface and that left white spots, so, I sprayed it with a clear coat to make it look better. I used Rust-oleum Ultra Cover matte clear.

It seems that Thingiverse cannot render any of these OpenScad files, but my PC can do it.
