Multi-Color Torqued Vase

thingiverse

Finally, a multi-colored vase that does not require a multi-coloured printer! I achieved the best results by printing this model in spiral vase mode with combing enabled. After "VaseFinal" has been printed, press a piece of 1.75mm filament into each outer groove to add accent colour. If the filament is too hard to press in, try reprinting the model at a slightly larger scale. You can either cut the filament at the top of the vase or leave it a bit longer and add leaves. The leaves will need to be scaled depending on the properties of the material you're using, but I had good results at 100% scale. A hair dryer can be used to set the leaves in place, but be careful not to damage the vase! An optional "VaseBase" has also been included if you want the bottom of the vase to be the accenting colour instead. Again, the scale of this part may need to be adjusted so that it fits the vase with your material and printer properties. This part is shown in the first picture. You also need to set the bottom solid layers to 25 so that the base can print properly in vase mode. These are the flowers I used: https://www.myminifactory.com/object/3d-print-daisy-flat-flower-30176 Happy printing!
