If you are growing any kind of vine-based fruit, keeping them off the dirt is very important for their protection. These simple melon cradles will help you grow beautiful melons without any bruises or bug infestations.

Despite what your slicer says, this does not require any support.

The .3mf files are Bambulabs-specific. If you have any other printer, download the STL files. Make sure you print 2 spikes for every cradle you print.

 

The spikes and cradle can be scaled without any issues. If you have smaller fruit, or much larger fruit, just scale to the size and shape you need. Make sure you scale both spikes and cradle at the same time to ensure the spikes will fit. the spikes need to be secured into the cradle. I used CA glue (crazy glue).
