Put your head straight!
Spin the segments to form a bust.
CAN YOU GUESS OF WHO THE BUST IS?
Each segment is numbered for easy assembly. The numbers are hollowed into the TOP solid.
The stick is now printed horizontally - in direction of layers - it makes it tougher. The model contains 6 different diameters - use the on that fits you the best. Not all printers print the same and are not well calibrated)
When spinning, do not be too hard! The speed of spinning must be increased GRADUALLY - same as the stopping. SUDDENLY MADE QUICK MOTION CHANGES WILL NOT RESULT IN PROPER SEGMENT ALIGNMENT. But it could only result in breaking the inner pins.
2 Perimeters, 10% infill, 2 top layers, 2 bottom layers are fine. No support.
Be sure, your first layer is calibrated well. When it is too low, the filament spreads to the sides and makes holes smaller (The model will not be able to bee assembled).

Hugo, can you please add image/file option into the comments? So I could simply answer with a picture! 💡 Would be handy for makers as well when having printing/assembling problem.
Who is he so? :)
Thank you very much Dominik for your nice answer. Indeed it would be a useful feature. Let me see what we can do about this, but indeed, the comment sections has to be improved. Let's keep in touch!
