❄ Infinite Snowflake Generator – Fully Parametric, Truly Unique Ornaments

Generate one-of-a-kind snowflakes with a single click.
Every flake you create is generated by algorithmic randomness - meaning no two designs will ever be the same unless you reuse the same random seed.

This generator gives you complete control over complexity, size, branching, style, and the position of the hanger loop. It’s designed to produce clean, support-free prints even with ultra-fine tips and fractal-style detail.

⭐ How to Generate a New Snowflake (Important!)

MakerWorld’s Parametric Model Maker only generates a new model when something changes.

To create a new, completely unique snowflake:

Change the “rand seed” value
This guarantees a fresh, never-before-seen design.

Why the seed matters:

• Same seed = same snowflake
• Change the seed = new snowflake
• Write down seeds you like so you can recreate them later

You can change any parameter to refresh the model, but changing only the seed gives you the biggest visual difference.

🧊 Parameter Guide

rand seed

The “DNA” of your snowflake.
Same seed → identical design.
New seed → completely new geometry.

outer radius (mm)

Controls the overall size of the snowflake.

thickness (mm)

Sets the Z-thickness of the flake.
2 mm is a good balance for strength and detail.

arm count

How many main branches your snowflake has.
(3–12 arms; 5–6 looks the most natural)

branch levels

Number of recursive fractal branching stages.

• Lower values → simple, bold snowflakes
• Higher values → complex, delicate snowflakes

branch base width (mm)

Controls how thick the branches begin.
1.2 mm is a personal recommended default, but feel free to experiment.

hanger enabled

Toggle the ornament loop on or off.

hanger offset (mm)

Slide the hanger up/down to match the geometry of each unique flake.

hanger outer / inner diameter

Set the size of the loop depending on your string/thread.

⭐ Printing Tips

• Layer height: 0.1 mm for best detail
• Material: white, matte, or marble PLA looks fantastic
• Supports: none needed
• Scaling: tiny flakes print in minutes; large ones stay crisp
• First layer: slow it slightly to capture fine edges
