planter Insert for Hanging plant

thingiverse

This is a liner for a Kmart NZ branded hanging planter. It's a fantastic planter, but lacks an essential feature - drainage. That's why I created this two-piece liner that creates an air gap in the bottom of the planter. To print the main pot, use vase/spiralize mode. This will ensure a smooth and even finish. For the bottom piece, select 2 walls only, without a base or top. You'll also need to adjust the infill pattern density to achieve the right drainage for your soil mix. I used Cura's 60% Tri-hexagon infill in my example, but you can experiment with different settings to find what works best for you. I've included two sets of files - regular and smaller - which should fit most Kmart NZ hanging planters. If you have a pot with more taper, like one of my wife's pots, the smaller file might be a better fit. Good luck with your print!
