This CAD model details a pendant structured as a Christian cross, assembled from three stylized nails evocative of the Crucifixion. The design features a primary vertical nail forming the stipes and two additional nails forming the patibulum, or horizontal cross-beam. The overall dimensions are explicitly defined in the technical drawing, measuring 44.00mm at its widest point and 26.00mm in total height from the base to the top of the bail. The surface of each nail is intentionally irregular with a heavily textured, hand-forged appearance, characterized by pits and uneven planes to simulate an ancient artifact. This textural detail is central to the design and would be well-preserved using high-resolution SLA or DLP 3D printing methods before lost-wax casting. The three nails are intertwined, with the two horizontal nails positioned in front of the vertical one, creating a distinct sense of depth and layering. A fixed, closed bail with an approximate inner diameter of 2.00mm is seamlessly integrated into the head of the vertical nail, ensuring a secure attachment point for a necklace chain. The model is presented as a single, watertight mesh suitable for direct production workflows. The tapered points of the nails and the rounded heads are modeled with substantial thickness to ensure successful casting without weak points. The design's asymmetry and rugged finish distinguish it from more traditional, polished cross pendants.

Production & Compatibility The model's intricate surface texture is best captured with high-resolution resin 3D printers like those from Anycubic, Elegoo, or Phrozen, using a castable wax-resin. Due to its solid, single-piece construction without significant undercuts, it is well-suited for a standard lost-wax investment casting process. The integrated bail simplifies finishing, requiring minimal post-processing.
Q: What are the exact dimensions of this nail cross pendant? A: The pendant measures 44.00mm wide and 26.00mm high, as specified in the included technical drawing.
Q: What is the size of the loop for the chain? A: The integrated bail at the top has an inner diameter of approximately 2.00mm, suitable for most standard-sized necklace chains.
Q: Is the rough, textured surface intentional? A: Yes, the model features a deliberately hand-forged, irregular texture across all three nails. This is a key design element intended to create a rustic and ancient aesthetic.
