Spiral Melting Vase

thingiverse

Do Not use Vase Mode. Update 5/19/20: A new V2 model has been added. Some users reported issues with the bottom layer not sitting flat on the bed, so I increased the bottom layer by 5 mm to make more of it sit flat on the bed. This vase was one of my most challenging creations to design. The waves in the sides required precise layer shifts right and left throughout the entire height of the vase to achieve the desired effect every 10 mm. Dimensions at 100%: 151 mm wide X 243 mm tall with 8 mm walls. Initially, I envisioned it as a wave, but once complete, it reminded me more of handmade, pealed/sculpted candles containing multiple colors. So, I now think of it as a Melting Vase. You can use your preferred filament and adjust settings to suit your favorite vase-making preferences. Additional Notes: Although originally intended as a vase, this design can be resized to create a unique cup or pencil holder.
