EGG-sclusive EGG-straviganza! Mystery Egg, Blank Egg, and Crystalized Egg Subscriber Exclusives

You can split the egg to objects, then instead of the global tab - you will need to go to the object tab and change the order that the eggs print in - you will want to pull STL2 up to the top to be first in order, that way your gradient will switch nicely between the two eggs. There may be other ways, but this guaranteed it printed perfectly each time.

If anyone else is looking through this for answers if they are having problems - I too was having issues with the top of the inside of the egg - as soon as I added some tree supports - the eggs all started printing beautifully.

Paula

I wouldnt go lower than 40%!

Tracy Francis

how small can these shrink?

Tami Gardner

we tried these several times the top and bottom do not seem to line up ever

Watkins 3D Creations

I recommend a couple strap wrenches. They're super helpful to have around the house. https://www.amazon.com/Adjustable-Strap-Wrench-5-Ribbed/dp/B012RPKM8A

Joe

Both!

Tracy Francis

are these eggs for full size adults or for full size babies?

JustADuck33

I am printing the Mystery egg at scale size 70.22 size of the top and bottom together and once I put them together me and my husband can't get the egg apart

Sierra Fain

nope!

Jazzy Plz

do these eggs require supports?

Just FYI, the 100% Crystal Dragon fits nicely in an 85% Dragon Scale Egg. I printed one of these eggs at 100% originally given the 1:1 recommendation (I thought this applied to all dragons but maybe just the baby dragons?) but it's far too big.

Kriscee

does anyone know what size for different dragons would fit 60% eggs? they're so large but i still keep being juuuust unable to fit dragons in them, especially any with wings.

Geek and Artsy

Any chance you can make the mystery egg smaller to match the other smaller eggs. when i try to scale it down to match to put a tadling in the walls are soo thin.

Spryguy

OK so I finally made some eggs and this is my sizing recommendations for ADULT gemstone dragons. First off, I made one at 100 percent (huge) idk what that's for, but I can easily fit 2 if not 3, 25" long full size gemstone dragons in it. 80 percent size will hold one dragon, but it's extremely tight fit, and requires some neat folding to get it in there. I'VE LANDED WITH 85 PERCENT EGG TO BE THE CORRECT SIZE FOR A 100 PERCENT 25" ADULT GEMSTONE DRAGON

Jake ilovestuffforreal

its based on scale. so if its a 70% baby, its a 70% egg, its 1:1

Jazzy Plz

I have an 18-inch crystal dragon what size egg should I make for it?

Misty Birkhimer

On the crystal egg

Austin Anderson

When I print the separate files the top half of the egg has a defect on the top of the inside what should I do

Austin Anderson

I'd love a separate top and bottom file so I can do transition prints that match with rainbow PLA. Please and thank you so much!

Alisa Lytle

This is what im wondering as well!

Chad Presson

cupcake boxes!

Jazzy Plz

its likely part might have lifted while printing a little!

Jazzy

I printed the crystal egg, there is a small gap between the top and bottom. When put together.

Judi

So I'm trying to print a bunch of these eggs out at about 70-80% scale to take to shows and sell, does anyone know of any cool windowed gift boxes or gable style handled boxes that are out there that fit these eggs?

Mike Wardlow

I know it says baby dragons but will any dragon (without wings) fit if scaled to the egg size?

Kyle Pena

I'm still trying to figure it out as well so if anyone has a x1c profile for eggs or has the secret to print them, please share :)

3DPrintalot

FYI everyone, I have successfully printed 60% baby dragons and 50% eggs and they fit. :)

Becca_Artorium

Anyone have any advice for awful overhangs when doing the eggs? Tried my X1C, A1 and a1 mini but the bottom section of the bottom of the egg always comes out terrible due to overhang. Tried slowing for overhangs and also tried no cooling for the first few layers. Filament is calibrated and print beautifully otherwise

Newfound3DPrints

What layer settings did you use for this size. I would like to do this for my students at school

Robert Merrell

FYI, I printed these at regular Easter egg hunt-size (25%) and they turned out great!

Becca_Artorium

I printed at 25% to use as eggs for hiding, and they turned out great!

Becca_Artorium

A tadling is around the size of a 50% baby drgon scale so that makes sense!

Jazzy Plz

In case no one else has tried it, but people wanted to know: I'm SUPER easy fitting 100% tadlings inside of 60% eggs. I haven't tried scaling the eggs down further, but it looks like as low as 45% eggs should fit most (if not all) the 100% tadlings!

Miridarna

as somebody who prints dragon eggs for a scavenger hunt at music festivals, this is literally so hype

Josh Lieberman

We test everything from 60-100%, but it's a fairly simple shape so I imagine it can go down a bit. Being that the main goal was thinner walls however, you may see gaps if you go too small.

Jazzy

How small can these go, percent wise?

Melissa

100%

Jazzy

What size would these be for a regular full size dragon?

Revenant Raven

Tadlings are around the same size as a 50% baby

Jazzy

what size eggs would fit a majority of tadlings?

Andrea DeJong

usually tri and duals like a straight filament path and a good extruder! Sometimes tho they just be like that

Jazzy

There is one already!

Jazzy

You should do a baby Easter dragon too!

Emily

Not likely, the Rose Egg was more or less for fun.

Jazzy

Does anyone know the trick to printing with dual or tri colored filament? It looks great when I print a dragon with it but when I do an egg I get stripes of different colors in random places.

Sarah Buckland

will there be solid versions of the other eggs, like the rose one?

Mike Sprague

the top is a bit of a bridge, would reocmmend checking those settings out

Jazzy Plz

Just printed the butterfly egg. Love it! But there was some filament that didn't stick well on the inside of the top of the egg. Does anyone know why? Did I print too fast? Thanks in advance.

Sarah Buckland

Just for those who want to know. I tested the aligned Mystery egg at 90% and got a 100% scale Dragon inside easily. The 100% Rose egg fit my 125% rose Dragon and a 75% scaled dragon fit in a 65% mystery egg. I know eggs are a big deal and saving filament is a huge plus. Hope this helps others out.

MrsEllison

Sooo happy they look really nice! Any chance the advent calendar variant of the original scale egg will be updated as well?

Morialkar

You shoudlnt need to no, thats ratehr strange! This egg is way less tight from the old style

Jazzy Plz

Wade Cutshall

I think thats how they made them its too big for my plate . "the originals The eggs have been resized from the original eggs (Dragon Scale & Crystal) and are now Larger to match 100% Egg to 100% dragon. Thus, if you scale the eggs to 60% they can fit 60% baby dragons in them!"

Kathryn McMurray

What can these eggs be scaled down to? When I slice just the bottom of the Crystalized Egg it says it will take over a day to print. This can't be correct. Any idea of what is happening? Thanks in advance!

Mark Mageau

A heart eggs can be amazing too❤️🙏

Andy's 3D

It would seem they have fixed that problem.

Maury Rice

Thank you so much! I printed a dragon scale egg at 150% in tri-filament and it turned out beautiful, but scales & colors didn't line up exactly, I was going to send a message to see if you could fix it, but now I don't have to! I just re-downloaded the updated file from Cults, thank you for your amazing work!!! I can't wait to make another set!

Melanie St Onge

Hi Tracy, PixelForge3D is selling your models on Etsy without and mention of Cinderwing. I thought this was just wrong.

Michael Davis

Yes!

Jazzy Plz

Have the updated files been uploaded to MMF as well?

Creighton Lance Carroll

Just re-download it from Cults!

Jazzy Plz

I bought the dragon scale egg back in November on cults. How do I go about getting the updated files?

T.J. Rusk

Please reach out via Discord Support tickets in the server, or email! I'll get ya fixed up

Jazzy Plz

If you read the post, that's already been done!

Jazzy Plz

Can the previous eggs made thinner as well? Thanks!

George Mikhail

I purchased the crystal egg off etsy before I became part of the patreon. How can I get the file that is updated?

Mimi Sharon

These were all printed and tested before release. I'd recommend checking your layerheights That being said I will check it out! EDIT: I cannot seem to re-create this. If anyone else has this issue please let us know!

Jazzy Plz

When I try to slice the crystal egg "aligned" I'm getting the error "No layers were detected. You might want to repair your STL file or check their size or thickness and retry" Is that just me? Or are others getting the same error?

Ashley Florack

Yay! Thank you so much for these

D3D Prints

Awesome!

Donald Knepshield

Omg! I am SO EXCITED for this! Our customers have been asking for these!!

Danita (Restored Faith3D)

So many eggs! I love them.

Gwendolyn Pomidor

It's all in the post. The eggs are made to scale 1 for 1 with the dragons. Please make sure you read the bulletpoints in the post!

Jazzy Plz

LOVE Man I think I need my "keepers" collection space to grow.. I was also just thinking about the time and filament of those eggs today, so thank you!!

Rebecca (LionMight)

What dragons fit best in these? And can they scale ok?

Levelbedded_XYZ

THANK YOU!

Ryan Shields

These are EGGmazing!! Thank you!

Morgan Kotnik

Thank you!! Love the previous eggs, but don’t love the time and amount of filament. These look perfect. Can’t wait to print!!

Brion Goudreau

Egg-cellent!!! 🥚
