huge self watering planter

thingiverse

Thank you to BryanR381 for this awesome temple design! I created a massive self-watering planter with dimensions of approximately 272x279x205 mm. However, due to the tiny holes in the water scale, you print it at your own risk. I haven't tested or printed it yet and modified it purely for fun. Nevertheless, I double-checked the model as thoroughly as possible. Please examine it carefully before printing to ensure everything is correct. According to my calculations, with 0.2 layers, two walls, and an 8% infill line density, this design will require approximately 600g of filament and less than three days to print in its current size. This estimate assumes no supports were used. However, I believe you'll need some external support to stabilize the structure. You might be able to avoid printing supports on the inside pillar due to its relatively small overhang under the large pillar (less than 45°). Nonetheless, if using supports is necessary, make sure the pipes remain hollow. If you decide to print this planter, please share your results by posting a photo of your creation.
