Here's a Christmas ornament shaped like the novel coronavirus. Happy 2020!
As ornaments go, it's rather scientifically accurate. I'm a professional data physicalizer specializing in protein structures, plus I owe Scott Monsma, PhD big thanks for consulting and references. If you share or adapt the file, credit is appreciated.
This has the spikes, pores, and capsid as separate shells so you can color them differently if you like. I'm not able to advise on printer settings. Obviously it's not the world's simplest part, and if you can comment with advice that'd be very welcome -- good luck, and if it works out I'd love to see a picture.
PS if you'd like one in a glass cube I have those for sale.
