About the Design
I wanted a modern and simple design that would be fun and easy to print. I love printing 2 tone planters as it makes it easy to create many unique variations and is very simple to do a color swap in a Slicer program. I used this planter for some rare basil and pared it up with the self-watering planter insert to make it easy to grow herbs in my house.
Inside pot dimensions: 5"x 3.5" with a shell/wall thickness of .075" to make it water tight. I printed .2mm layer height using Overture Matte Teal PLA with Eryone Silk Gold PLA for the top part. Color change set in Prusa Slicer.
Print Settings that Worked for Me
Let me know your results or thoughts?
I'm starting to design more planters. I'm playing around with shell thickness to maintain water-tightness but also keep filament as low as possible. I find 1.75-2m works well but if you have different experiences, let me know!
