I needed a simple design to lift my pots out of the tray so I could create self-watering planters for my spring planting. Since I had all the parts but the Capillary mat for a few dollars I was able to make a much more durable system than the store-bought ones that I can use for years. Hope someone else enjoys it too and please share any feedback!

Notes:
You can print in 2-3 hrs with .6 line width and 2 wall lines on an ender 3s1 with a .4 tip. Also use some Anti Warp tabs on the corners as with anything large... Also if your Gcode has priming and your on a 220x220 bed best to remove them or peel them off right after they are done.
