Tested on PLA prints

No deformations were noticed (nor in walls nor in the bottom) but there can be some if you will use bigger candles - be advised

Still I'm recommending a LED candles instead of real ones- as I used it

3D printing settings

Models are made for 0.4mm nozzle

No supports needed

2 walls

20% Gyroid infill (it's used just for a base)

Recommended layer height 0.1-0.2mm

Printed with PLA

If you want a diffused light on the pattern (romboidal holes) merge the model with Ch_Addon_Diffuser

Model will also be easier to print then

You can see the difference in the models list

Test files should be printed with a brim

It is also a good way to test your filament. It should not be too dense to let the light go through. Usually the lighter colors or transparent ones are better
