Prompt
A functional Easter-themed birdhouse in the shape of a large egg, designed for 3D printing with a fully integrated print-in-place hinged floor. Egg-shaped body, approximately 150mm tall with a maximum diameter of 100mm. On the front, a perfectly circular entrance hole exactly 32mm in diameter. At the top, an integrated sturdy hanging loop (5-6mm opening) for attaching to branches. The bottom of the egg features a separate floor panel connected by an integrated print-in-place hinge mechanism. The hinge is a simple barrel hinge with a small clearance gap (0.3mm) between the interlocking knuckles, allowing the floor to swing open and closed without assembly. The floor panel fits flush with the egg bottom when closed and has a small tab or lip for easy opening. The hinge must be designed to print in a single pass without supports, with the floor oriented correctly during printing. The surface has a smooth, stylized eggshell finish. Subtle Easter decoration: very faint, shallow engraved patterns like simple lines or dots suggesting decoration, but not overpowering the egg shape. The design is clean, functional, and charming. TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS FOR 3D PRINTING: - Watertight manifold mesh, ready for FDM printing - Uniform wall thickness minimum 2-3mm throughout - No unsupported overhangs exceeding 45 degrees - Print-in-place hinge: barrel hinge with 0.3mm clearance between moving parts, designed to be printed without supports - Hinge axis horizontal during printing for proper function - Entrance hole modeled slightly undersized (31.5mm) to account for filament shrinkage/expansion - Reinforced attachment points for hinge and hanging loop - Designed for single-color printing in PETG or ASA (outdoor durable) CRITICAL PRINT-IN-PLACE INSTRUCTIONS: - The floor and hinge must be connected with a thin sacrificial bridge or clearance gap that breaks free after printing - All hinge components must be separate but interlocked in the model, with a 0.3mm air gap to prevent fusing - The floor should be slightly recessed into egg bottom for flush fit when closed - A small finger tab extends from the floor edge for easy opening The overall aesthetic is a charming, functional Easter birdhouse that looks like a decorated egg but serves as a real nesting box with a print-in-place hinged floor for easy cleaning access.
