I created a few simple replacement parts for my home.\r\n\r\nTea Pot Handle\r\n------------------\r\nMy original wooden or rattan handle had perished, and it was surprisingly difficult to replace - it featured two small knobs instead of the standard one. I printed the first version from grey PLA at 0.3 with a fancy scale in both Y and Z axes. (The grey one) proved challenging to place on the heat bed, so I opted for a simpler white version made from PET. \r\n\r\nWatering Rose\r\n-----------------\r\nI aimed to use PET for this design, but it's tricky to print small details with my MK2 printer - particularly when it comes to holes in the watering rose. To ensure proper adhesion on the first layer, I limited the number of holes in the original version (wattering_rose_v3.stl). It works quite well, although I used a hand drill to add a few more holes for faster watering.\r\nFor the next iteration (v4), I added a decorative ring and made it significantly larger. The print turned out super-nice with 0.2+white PET\r\n\r\nThese parts can be customized in terms of size, angle, and number of holes. I'm aware that the angle of the holder will cause it to sink too far into the rose, resulting in a few layers being printed in mid-air.
