Description

I have produced this design by trying lots of ideas and printing a lot of imperfect baseboards for my bathrooms. By the time the model here was refined, the prints were coming across very reliably good. 

I recommend priming and painting these, and using a silicone caulking agent to bind them to the wall and each other.

This design requires a printer that can bridge a halfway decent span of about 80mm. If yours doesn't, you can add very sparse (widely spaced) supports to help support the structure.

PS slicing settings should include at least 5 top layers and 3 bottom layers in the default orientation. I used a layer height of .22 but you could go finer if you want better detail on the curved part. Number of perimeters should be 3 or more. Gyroid infill of 10% should be plenty.

Obviously you'll scale the board to your printer, but only in one axis. Generally this is done by unlocking the x-y-z scaling and only adjusting the scale in the length plane.
