This design has the following Customizer options: General Diameter - Diameter at widest point Sides - Number of sides Bottom Bottom_Height - Uncut height of bottom section Bottom_Cutoff_Percent - Percentage to cut from bottom section Middle Middle_Height - Height of middle section Top Top_Height - Uncut height of top section Top_Cutoff_Percent - Percentage to cut from top section Printing Orientation - Rotate onto face for easier printing Preview Show_Uncut_Ends - Show uncut ends in preview mode Design Considerations In many cases, it should be possible to print designs without supports. For the best results, consider the angle of overhangs and use the Orientation option. Material This design is perfect for printing in most filaments, but we recommend translucent filaments/resins in particular for this design.
