I really like mishnkin2's chameleon so here's a simple office accessory while I'm waiting on inspiration for more remixes.

Print tips and instructions for novice users:

It is designed for “spiral vase mode” but you can print with mostly default settings as long as you specify zero infill and zero top layers (otherwise you get a solid block!)

If you're printing in vase mode (recommended), I suggest bumping extrusion width (PS under "advanced" print settings) to 0.6-0.8mm with 0.4 nozzle to give it some thickness and durability. If you use 0.6 nozzle, you have many more options (I prefer 0.9mm extrusion width for vase mode).

Remember vase mode generally does best quality under low speeds, 30mm/s is a good starting point.

Minor tweak: if you want the best aesthetics printing round objects, set top and bottom fill pattern for “concentric” (PS under “infill” settings).
