Simple Plant Saucers in 4 Sizes
Spring is finally here (and so is planting season in our garden), so we needed a few pots and particularly plant saucers for the smaller pots. I wanted them to be moderately waterproof so they can also be used inside (which is why they are 1 mm thick all around - this gives you 4 layers at the bottom and walls of 2 lines).
So here is a
set of simple, easy and fast to print plant saucers. Dimensions are for the inner diameter (i.e. the lower diameter of the pots you want to use it for):
- 70 mm
- 90 mm
- 110 mm
- 140 mm
But you can of course scale them to any size you need them.
FILAMENT Use something that's strong, heat resistant and easy to print. I am using
Carbon Fiber PLA , which is stronger and slightly more heat resistant, looks good and is extremely easy to print. I found
PETG to be a little trickier but PETG definitely helps with heat resistance when used outside.
PRINTING This should be a very easy print. Strictly no supports needed. All walls are 1 mm, so ideally print with a line width of 0.5 mm (which works great with a 0.4 mm nozzle) and a resolution of 0.25 mm.
