Space-age Bowl Customizer

cults3d

I assembled this retro-futuristic bowl creator in Fusion 360. It's fully parameterized, and the attached STLs are just examples of the wide range of designs you can create. The inside profile of the bowl becomes conical at the center, so it can be printed upside-down without supports, provided your printer can handle reasonable overhangs. Please post your makes and customizations. I've released this under a non-commercial license. If you wish to use the design commercially, contact me. There's also a double bowl version, which has the option of built-in supports to cover the center span. If you're going to use these for food, use food-safe filament and/or an appropriate surface sealant. Notes on customizing: I've posted an F3D archive for each variant, but they're all pretty much the same file with different values for the parameters. The parameter "maxOverhang" determines where the design switches from spherical to conical. If you want to remove the conical feature, set this to 89.5, because making it exactly 90 requires editing the timeline. When you change some of the parameters, you need to edit a few steps in the timeline to make it work. For example, if you change the number of legs, you should edit the "combine" operation to ensure all of the legs are selected as tools.
