A gear themed plant pot that will bring steam/clockpunk vibes to your home, and unite nature and industry at last. The tall pot also works great to store pens. 

Print information:

  • Print in vase mode. You can increase the external perimeter's width to 1.5x the nozzle width (e.g. 0.6 for 0.4 nozzle) for sturdier print. 
  • I used 0.25 layer height to get a strong shine effect from my PLA blend/silk/metallic filament. For more matte colors, use lower layer height, such as 0.15.
  • Use 2 layers to have holes to evacuate the excess water, 3 layers or more to have a watertight print or if you want to add legs.
  • The pots are designed for 13cm diameter pots. Scale as you need.
  • There are three variants with different heights. The medium variant will result in the planter pot to be more of less flush with the printed pot. (Verify the height in your slicer, as planter pots' heights can differ.)
  • The legs are to be printed non-vase mode. Ordinary parameters work fine.
  • Glue the legs on the pot using instant glue, use the legs' nobs with the holes on the pot to align the legs.
  • If you scale the pot, scale the legs with the same factor.
  • Should work with any filament, but metallic filaments really shine here.
