Lung Vase

3D printing and design in the time of COVID

Please enjoy this model! It's one of my most precious designs, and now feels like the right time to post it.

Comes with a display stand that I am too lazy to print :-P.

The vase itself needs supports, the stand does not.

For generating supports, I did not require placing supports inside the bronchi, so you can just make supports that are touching the build plate.

For the Flowers, this is not going to be viable for real/live flowers unless you are using flowers that have sturdy but thin stems. I used fabric flowers with wire stems, so that you can easily bend the flowers to the right shape.

And for the stand, would glue the back of the trachea to the flattened area. If you want to remix the stand so that you don't need glue, go for it!

Enjoy!!
