Candy Canes 2025

Spiral and lattice candy cane designs in one and two colors

Yes, these need supports. More on that later.

Since I've provided 5 different designs, all with multiple files, I attached a zip for each design with STL, 3MF, and GCODE for each. Each design comes with and without a loop. I modeled a shape that exactly fits the loops so you can use them as shape modifiers to strengthen the loops. These are included in the zips.

**I have only printed these in one color.** However, I imagined them printed in two. I wanted to create complex 2-color patterns. I just don't have a multicolor printer. So, the 2-color designs are experimental. The 2-color designs I wanted to create would be a lot easier to model than to paint, So, I created one red STL and one white STL for each design. The two pieces need to be aligned and printed as one. If you give this a try and are able to get it to work, please post a make!

I suggest printing the candy canes vertically unless you can print with water solub
