Bender Bending Rodriguez, the alcoholic watering bulb

# Bender is lazy, and a uni-tasker. It's about time he got a job # Now, you can have your favorite Futurama character, Bender Bending Rodriguez, as a buddy for your plants... Fill this beauty up and stick it in your favorite house plant, and watch as Bender does the heavy lifting of keeping your plants watered for you! Not going to lie, this one can be a PITA to get water tight, but here's some of my advice on how I consistently get him water tight every time... - .4mm nozzle - .7 - .72mm line width - .2mm layer height - FULL SPEED AHEAD on the cooling fan - Print upside down on the antenna to allow the bottom to be open for filling / sticking in your plant. - Vase mode, with around 80-90 bottom layers. Yes, you read that right. The 80-90 bottom layers allow more rigidity to the antenna, which helps keep it from wobbling when it gets to higher layers. Otherwise, it's going to start leaving weird rings on the stem. - Make sure you have enough time between layers for the filament to harden and solidify or it'll turn into a messy glob, especially on the antenna and stem area.
