A Self Watering Planter (One Print in Spiral Vase)

prusaprinters

These parts are designed to use a few solid layers on the bottom and then a continuous and unbroken profile all the way up the part. Prusa and Slic3r call this vase mode, while Cura calls it spiralize.A single piece/print design of the ever-present self-watering planter. Saves all the folderol of multiple prints and also saves a whole bunch of time. Since it's a vase mode part, the wall speed is the only setting that significantly affects the print time. I can't advise printing at over 40mm/s and you'll get better prints at slower speeds.Printing times (approximate):140W190H: 7-8 hours100W140H: 4-5 hours80W100H: 2-3 hoursThe parts will be very sensitive to scaling, due to a double-back on one of the walls. A few percent either way should be okay, but consult your layer preview. If you have a size you would really like to print, just let me know and I can configure a new file.Print SettingsIn Prusa Slicer, you will need to go into Print Settings > Advanced > Slice gap closing radius, and change it to 0.001mm.Rafts:NoSupports:NoResolution:0.2mmInfill:N/ANozzle Diameter:0.4mmLine Width:0.6mm (over extrusion for a thicker wall)Top/Bottom Layer Width:0.4mm (I've found this necessary in order to achieve a water tight base)Bottom Layers:5Inner/Outer Wall Print Speed:<40mm/sSpiralize Outer Contour:Yup
