Parametric Christmas Tree with Star Topper

Create a unique and festive 3D Christmas tree with this fully customizable model. Designed for flexibility, this script lets you adjust the tree’s height, branch details, trunk dimensions, and even choose between a classic or wavy skirt style. Once you’ve crafted the tree to your liking, you can switch to render a matching star topper separately, available in small, medium, or large sizes, to perfectly crown your creation.

Features:

• Tree Height & Branch Customization : Tailor the height, branch length, and spacing to create anything from a mini tabletop tree to a centerpiece-sized decoration.

• Trunk & Skirt Options : Adjust the exposed trunk’s height and diameter, and choose a colorful skirt for the base in either a wavy or traditional style.

• Separate Star Topper : After rendering the tree, switch the settings to print a star topper that fits seamlessly on top. With size options and a customizable fit for the trunk tip, the star can be a standalone ornament or the crowning touch on your tree.

How to Use the Script:

1. Start with the Tree : Modify the tree settings to your preference, adjusting height, trunk, and branch details. Choose your preferred skirt style and color.

2. Render the Star : Once the tree is ready, switch to render the star topper separately. Choose the size and allow the script to position the star’s center hole for easy placement.

This script is designed to be flexible and user-friendly, making it simple to create a Christmas tree that fits your holiday decor. Customize colors, sizes, and details to make it uniquely yours. Enjoy creating your one-of-a-kind 3D-printed tree and star topper!

Printing Tips:

MAKE SURE THE AUX FAN IS OFF!! If you don't, you'll have a flat side on the tree branches

The profile provided uses the default settings from the customizer. Both the tree and star are available as fully-colored 3MF files, but if you don’t have an AMS for multi-color printing, you can download the STL files and use layer pauses to manually add color.

For a fun texture on the skirt, try enabling fuzzy skin—it adds a nice touch! I’ve adjusted the wall count for both the skirt and the tree. The skirt has a modified layer height to achieve 2 walls and 10% infill, while the global settings are set to 3 walls and 20% infill for the trunk and branches to provide extra strength for the trunk.
