A Cute Little Cactus

thingiverse

A versatile miniature cactus model that can seamlessly integrate with or stand alone in its flower pot is available for download. This design boasts the ability to be easily scaled up or down to accommodate various user preferences. The delicate thorns on this model require no support structure, while larger branches may optionally benefit from additional support. To print this design, I recommend using PLA+ at a temperature of 220C. The estimated printing time for the cactus itself is approximately 50 minutes, while the flower pot takes around 30 minutes to complete. Infill settings are entirely optional; however, if you plan on using a 0% infill, it's advisable to increase the top solid layers to more than three, depending on your printer's specific settings. A word of caution: the thorns have turned out remarkably sharp, so be sure to handle with care. For those who prefer a thorn-free experience, I've included an alternative STL file.
