A fast to print, single filament decorative bow that uses <6g of filament.  Just print, heat, and bend into shape.  Remixed from Bjørn Frihagen's clever design.

This model is a fun place to experiment with different top/bottom layer patterns and looks great with coextruded filament.  I used lots of walls to make “borders” on the ribbon.  Have fun creating new looks and share your settings!

Assembly Instructions

Important: Use the great assembly instructions and video on the original design: Christmas Gift Bow - Foldable! 

With brittle filaments (like silk PLA), I definitely recommend heating each loop on the print bed before bending into shape. After feeding the top loop through to the bottom, the tab may break bending back into the center but fear not: just use heat to crease the tab below the bow and it will stay assembled.

Change log:

Old: initial (remixed) design

4.1: Took updated rounded corners, etc., from v4.1 of the source design.  Bow is now easier to assemble.
