Water your plant with style!
Do you have any plants, which needs watering from below? You are probably using plant pod with holes in bottom and plate for water.
You can upgrade your setup!
I designed plant pod with hollow wall, which allows you to apply water straight into roots.
And it looks amazing, because spiral patern inside makes water go all around the pod few times :D
Also, if your plant requires a lot of water, the containter can hold ~250ml of water (big version) or ~130ml (small version)
How to print?
This project was made specially for transparent filaments. I printed my pods with transparent PET-G. I highly recommend increase flow by ~5% to make print water-tight.
The most important thing is to adjust XY compensation. Every printer has differrent settings for every printing profile, so to avoid artefacts on outer wall you have to play with XY compensation until outer wall will have finite number of perimeters.
For example: I have printer with 0,5mm nozzle. I used profile for 0,3mm layer hight with 0,52 extrusion width, so I increased XY compensation to 0,04mm. to fit 2 perimeters in outer wall.
Don't forget to post your prints in “makes” section!
