Model Overview & Print Notes

Summary

This nice, easy to print vase will be a nice gift for friend or family to come along with some nice flowers!

Instructions

1) Download file
2) Generate gcode
The 3D STL is a closed file. I used Skeinforge to slice my prints (third one printing now). The 3D model is quiet tall @200mm and may not fit your 3D printer. Rescale or chop the top part to fit your printer.
Here's what I did generating gcode:

  • 3 bottom layers
  • No fill (obviously)
  • 1 extra shell (making 2 shells on wall)
  • Layer height 0,3 (to save print time)
  • Remove the top 3 layers by hand (after gcode was generated)
    3) Choose a color.
    I personally like the semi-transparent materials for these objects.
    4) Print the vase. It takes 2:30 up to 3:00 hours on my standard Ultimaker with SF settings as described above. The result is a pretty strong and good-looking vase!
    5) Enjoy!
