These objects emerge flat on the build plate but quickly take shape once removed and settle into a basket form.\nSeveral options exist to craft your own unique versions using the customizer.\nPrint Settings\nPrinter Brand:\n MakerBot\n \n Printer: MakerBot Replicator 2\n \n Rafts:\n Irrelevant \n Supports:\n Not needed \n Resolution:\n Thick layers are acceptable, precise settings not required \n Infill:\n A value between 20 and 40 is recommended \n Notes:\n You may need to conduct some trial runs to achieve the perfect print quality for your printer. I've provided detailed information in this file to get you started. Don't hesitate to ask questions if needed.\nPost-Printing\nExamine the printed object carefully, focusing on the base. Check if any rings have merged together; if so, gently press them upward to separate. If merging occurs frequently, modify the customizer settings and reprint. Begin by pushing down the base until it's mostly released, then progress layer by layer until the entire basket is fully detached.\nDesign Philosophy Inspired by scroll saw patterns that yield similar basket shapes, this design utilizes OpenSCAD to virtually recreate the cut blank with a spiral shape, mimicking the angle used in traditional scroll sawing – around 4 degrees.
