An entry for the remix challenge that is sure to warm the heart of a loved one in the winter.
For those that live in the cold temperatures and have that white fluffy stuff, you can create a heart shaped snow ball and leave one or many around the yard, on the car, or even making a path.
Included is a special insert and an additional mold half that allows for the special inset with an additional message.(not to be thrown!!)
Designed to take full advantage of the 200 x 200 of a Prusa i3, you can scale the size to 50% - 60% for a more manageable sized heart snow ball.
Models were created in Wings3D and Blender. I am still learning to use blender and like the ease of modeling in Wings3D
Disclaimer: Throwing snow balls at loved ones does not always warm their hearts as stated above. Use as a snowball at your own risk..
