Create your own jar! Make a jar that fits your exact needs, there are millions (billions?) of combinations making each jar unique. Choose from 27 jar patterns and 13 lid patterns. Sizes range from 25mm to 160mm in height and diameter. Click the customize button above to get started!
The jars have been tested extensively and I've provided 5 examples as profiles to download and print, but I encourage everyone to try out the customizer and make their own jars. Each pattern, except 2, was created in code from scratch and printed. I can't wait to see what you make!
Customize
Click the customize button above to load the Parametric Model Maker with the Jar Generator code.
For exporting an STL or a single plate 3MF, select the JarGenerator_STL option.
For exporting only a 3MF with the option to make the model multi plate, select the JarGenerator_3MF option.
Recommended Print Settings

Speed - Inner wall - 200 mm/s
Speed - Acceleration - Normal printing - 6000 mm/s2
Speed - Acceleration - Outer wall - 3000 mm/s2
Optional - Variable Layer Height - Will create smoother surfaces, this was not used in the examples
Notes
All example profiles were generated with mostly default settings. The only settings changed were height, diameter, jar pattern, and lid pattern. Settings such as lid tolerance are provided in case there are issues with fit, but the default setting should work for almost all use cases.
When exporting as a 3MF to open in Bambu Studio, the colors will automatically be assigned based on the colors you choose. I've added all of the Bambu PLA and Bambu PLA Matte colors with their corresponding hex code to the color pickers in the settings.
If you do not want the STL, select the 3MF customizer. This will allow you to export the 3MF with 2 plates for easy multicolor printing with no color swaps.
I've tested all of the patterns at max dimensions. I did not encounter any issues with the computation taking too long, but it is still a possibility.
If you plan to put liquids into the jar, I recommend using at least 3 wall loops.
Patterns
Main Settings
Models To Create
Jar + Lid - Generate both a jar and a lid.
Jar Only - Generate just a jar.
Useful for splitting the jar and lid for printing in different colors. Just don't change any settings.
Lid Only - Generate just a lid.
Don't change other settings when switching from jar to lid as lid types can change the jar geometry.
3MF Export Type
Only applies to the 3MF customizer. Allows you to select 1 or 2 plates so that the jar and lid can be split.

Select the color of the jar. These colors are the exact colors listed for all of the Bambu PLA and Bambu PLA Matte colors.
