Description

Here's a baseline wide-brimmed hat shell, anchored around the 170x200mm elliptical clearance requested. It is built flat to maximize bed adhesion for large-format printers, treating the build plate as the brim's reference plane. The dome is a simple half-ellipsoid that covers the core geometry, leaving plenty of room for modifications.

Remix Hooks

  • Crown Height: Set to a default 100mm. Scale the Z-axis of the crown geometry if you need a taller top hat or a shallower boater profile.
  • Brim Contour: It is completely flat right now to survive the first layer on a 400x400mm bed. You could run a slight Z-warp over the outer 50mm to give it a swoop, though that will require supports.
  • Material: At 2.4mm thick, this is dimensioned for standard rigid filaments (PETG/PLA) to hold its shape. Dialing the thickness down to 1.2mm for TPU would give the brim some authentic flop.
