Recommended nozzle diameter and print settings
For sturdy vase mode prints, a larger nozzle (0.8mm+) and thicker extrusion lines (1.0mm+) are recommended. This combination creates a strong, single-walled structure that compensates for the lack of multiple walls and infill.

Perimeter speed range: 15 - 30 mm/s
Layer height range: 0.3 mm - 0.5 mm

Watertight: is possible, but experimental: print hotter than usual (+10 degrees), use a low layer height and lower print speed for improved layer adhesion.
