Puppet Theater with puppets and scenery
Beskrivelse
This pocket-sized puppet theatre has everything needed to put on a fun pint-size puppet show. Not only that, but your little stage manager has full creative control with colour-your-own puppets and scenery backdrops. Great for gifts, party favours, or even as screen-free entertainment while travelling. Portable: fits in the palm of your hand No purge waste: all parts print using filament swaps (no AMS needed) Quick and easy print: tested until perfect, the whole model (puppets and theatre) prints in only 3.5h Backdrop slot for quick scenery changes: upcycle a business card* or use the PDF of ready-to-colour scenes (see Downloads) Packs away completely: puppets stow inside the stage while backdrops go in the rear pocket. Customizable: add your own text to a special name plate (see below for more information) * Why business cards? They're a common and easy-to-find source of sturdy paper. The slot is specifically designed to fit any one of the many different sizes used around the world.

Special Considerations – please read first ⚠️ Small parts. Choking hazard. Not suitable for very young children. Adult supervision is highly recommended and enjoyable. ⚠️ Glue required. The stage front should be glued on with an appropriate adhesive. I use gel CA glue (aka super glue) and find that it works for my purposes. However, I'd rather you did your own research to make an informed choice. Just don't use hot glue :) ⚠️ Permanent marker works best for colouring the puppets. Pencil crayons are also “okay” with the caveat that they can rub off in areas and aren't as bright. Water-based markers are NOT recommended. They smear, run, remain sticky, and just generally make a mess. Consider pre-colouring puppets if this will be a gift to a child that is old enough for the theatre but not so old that they will ink themselves up :) ⚠️ Clean build plate required. Small details will get dragged if the plate isn't clean. Print profiles contain settings which will help adhesion but cannot perform miracles 😥. Please see this wiki article for correct plate washing procedure. If you scale up the models yourself, I make no guarantees of model quality or fit as I haven't tested it myself. Additionally, you will need to edit the filament swap settings to take in to account any changes to scale. 2. Before You Print Printing is fairly straight-forward but there are a few things to keep in mind. ⚠️Multicolour parts use filament swaps and NOT the paint bucket. See and edit colour changes in Studio NOT Handy (the app). Be sure to select the right plate or profile for your setting. They will be marked as follows: “AMS Only” → AMS will auto change filament. “Manual Swap” → printer will pause and wait for user to change filament. Unfamiliar with filament swap printing? See Detailed Print Guide below. A1, A1 Mini or other bed slinger style printers: the theatre is taller than its footprint is wide and may be susceptible to coming loose. If in doubt, use the “with brim” plate in the profile. Plate type: Textured. While you can use a smooth plate, the fit of the parts may be affected. Theatre Body: can be customized with a name; download the special 3mf using the “Download STL/CAD Files” button and edit in Studio. Lid: Print in Regular size to start. If fit is too tight or loose, reprint using one of the other sizes if needed. Still not fitting? More info below. Suggested Filaments The models in the photos were primarily printed using Bambu PLA Basic (Indigo Purple) and PLA Galaxy (Purple). Curtain was printed in Overture PLA Silk (Christmas Red) and the gold accents in CC3D Silk PLA (Glorious Gold). Test prints were
