This bowl wasn't printed with that nozzle, but it did spark the idea. Let me tell you the story... It was a dark and stormy winter's night, and my small cabin was lit only by the faint glow of my 3D printer. I thought to myself: if I make it through this night intact, I'll have fun experimenting with large nozzles and infill patterns. Silly thoughts aside, what I found out with the big nozzle was that infill on large objects is absolutely mesmerizing. Massive grids made up of rigid filament are just as inspiring as the exterior, but eventually hidden beneath the print's finished surface. So, I had an idea: what if I printed only infill, without tops, bottoms, or sides? It was cool. Shapes in three dimensions formed from space-filling patterns! That's how I ended up creating this bowl, initially, woven out of big strands of infill. But, there was a problem... See, the shapes were awesome, but corners were nasty blobby messes and stringing internally like crazy! All the infill settings are designed for quick and effective space filling, not producing neat results. Now, one can change those infill settings to avoid problems, but introduces its own issues, and kind of defeats the original purpose anyway. Instead, I just designed the same thing, a little more abstracted, for normal printing.
