JackO’Lantern

I made a JackO’Lantern that can be 3D printed and used as a festive Halloween decoration when you put a tea candle or a tea light underneath it. This can be a nice addition to your Halloween decorations around the house and can serve as just a decoration or a small source of light.

You start by creating a basic pumpkin shape and elongating it and any direction to your liking.

You then copy that pumpkin shape, down size the copy by 0.8, and make it a hole. Then you center it with the original pumpkin shape and group then to make the center of the pumpkin hollow.

Then, you add a semicircle shape to the grid, elongate it, and add holes of squares for where the teeth should be .

Once you group those, then rotate the new shape to be parallel with the pumpkin and place it where you want the mouth of the JackO’Lantern to be.

You then add 2 triangular prisms to the grid and position to where you want the eyes of the pumpkin to be.

Then you make a rectangular prisms and turn it into a hole. Based on the height of your pumpkin you can adjust the height of the prism, center it to the pumpkin, and group them to completely hollow out the center of the pumpkin.

You then turn both triangular prisms and the mouth shape into holes and group them with the pumpkin and the rectangular prism. All Done!
