Description

PDF

Most self-watering planter designs print in two pieces: a planter, and a self watering insert. This one is just a single print. 

Versions:

Two versions are available: Blank and Faceted. Both function identically, however blank prints faster with less material. 

Print Instructions

Filament: PLA or PETG

Supports: None! All my designs are created to 3d print without support.

Perimeters: 3-4 (to achieve watertight seal)

Layer Height: 0.15-0.3mm

Color Change: Add a color change after 10mm on the “Blank” version to replicate the look below. (This is already included in the pre-sliced gcode)

 

And finally …. share a picture of your print in the comments section. Choosing two different colors for the Self Watering Insert and the Planter is a fun way to make the print pop, and I would love to see any color combinations you come up with.
