This is a rotating Christmas tree with hearts that revolve in the opposite direction as the tree rotation. The motion is created manually with a turn of the cranks on the side. The tree is printed in parts.
The assembly stl shows how the model is put together. I has to glue the star to the tree, the tree to center gear, and the power transfer gear to the crank handle. Everything else should fit together.
This object was made in Tinkercad. https://www.tinkercad.com/things/h1v4303A6lB
The model is already split up into the different parts.
Supports are needed for the Center Piece. All other print do not need supports. It might be useful to have a small supports for the tallest heart stand as it tends to wobble a as the print nears the top.
I printed the model in different color PLA with 0.3mm layer height,however, I do recommend printing in higher resolution as this allows for smoother movements of the gears. I used infill density anywhere from 5-10%.
