Welcome Pack: Gnomie Homies 🧔🥕 (Patreon)

Hi everyone! Today's release is a fun one that we actually had a suggestion for as I was finishing up the designs! If you follow my Instagram, you may have seen a sneak peak of this pack last night where I had people guess what the new clicker was going to be. Most of the guesses were split between Gnomes, Elves, or Grinch but the best guess was a carrot 🥕🤣, which to be fair, is totally plausible! If you look closely at the post, there is actually a line of gnomes at the very top in the background and a little gnome peeking up behind the 'D' in Disclaimer in the green text.

At first when designing these, I was a little convinced they looked like a rocket ship - but seeing them printed, I really do think they make some pretty darn cute festive gnomes! That being said, if you choose to paint it like a rocket ship, I won't be offended! Anyhow, here are a few festive gnome clickers for you all! Some are Christmas themed, others could be generic enough to paint whatever colors your feeling for the season! Hope you like my clicky gnomie homies! 🧔🥕

Like most of my designs, this is a clicky design that requires a mechanical keyboard switch to make the clicky part. These models feature a universal base design which has been tested with many keyboard switches and 99% of them work! I have an up to date list of verified clickers with links you can find HERE. This design should be compatible with most MX style keyboard switches, however, the two metal contacts on the bottom of the switch must be clipped off flush (or folded over) to ensure the switch seats properly in the base (this is a destructive process).  A 7mm keyring file is included as well as a larger, 3.5mm diameter keyring hole to allow a beaded chain to be used!

This pack contains 1 unique base shapes and 6 unique caps. Raised variants are offered where able. Each base comes in the standard 7mm, 3.5mm diameter and blank keychain configuration.

Photo Colors 🎨

Red - Hatchbox True Red PLA

Green - Elegoo Neon Green

Tan - Polymaker Cream

3D Printing Settings:

Layer Height: 0.2mm (recommended)

External Perimeter (Outer Wall): 0.33mm (recommended)

First Layer Extrusion Width (Initial Layer Line Width): 0.35mm (recommended)

Only one wall on first layer: True (recommended)

Scale: 100% (Everything is modeled with tight tolerances and should not need to be resized)

Orientation: Print the caps face down so you have a smooth surface for clicking! (recommended for flat)

NOTE: I've found the best way to get the most crisp details on these clickers is to start with the smallest details first and work up from there. Here is the order I recommend after LOTS of trial and error:

Small Detail (Eyes, Lights)

Medium Detail (Noses, Hands, Beards)

Everything Else (Base Colors)

I've also found hitting the print with a heat gun right before the main body color starts printing will eliminate any little strings that can cause blemishes on the final design.

⚠️WARNING⚠️ - This pack requires very good bed adhesion to ensure the best possible results for your finished clicker. It is recommended to clean your bed with soap and water before printing or whatever your specific printer manufacturer recommends for a deep bed clean!

Stay Pawsitive! 🐾
