Wavy Pen Cup (Vase Mode) with alternate models

Details

After my first vase model I wanted to create something with a finer pattern. This time I used some spheres to emboss/deboss the surface. I played a bit with the radius of those spheres and it produced this wavy pattern.

Dimensions (h x w x d): 102.7mm x 94mm x 94mm (basically 10.5cm x 9.5cm x 9.5cm)

Alternate models

The base model has a more protruding pattern at the middle and it becomes smoother at the top/bottom resulting in a barrel-like (narrow-wide-narrow) shape. The alternate models play a bit more with this, the alternate model #1 has a narrow-wide-narrow-wide-narrow and alternate model #2 has a wide-narrow-wide-narrow-wide shape.

• base model: in the middle with the colorful markers
• alternate model #1: on the left with the black pens
• alternate model #2: on the right with the colorful pens

Instructions

I attached the .gcode file for MK4 but in case you have a different printer all you have to do in PrusaSlicer (i use v2.6.0) is checking Spiral Vase on the Print Settings tab and it will add the necessary changes (like bottom layer, perimeter, etc).

Test

Tested on an MK4 (v4.7.2) with Marble Grey Prusament PLA (still in love with this color!).
