It's now available for purchase on Shapeways just in time for the holiday season at http://www.shapeways.com/model/783257/twisted-gear-vase.html?li=productBox-search. In January 2013, it was showcased at the 3DEA/Openhouse Gallery in New York alongside numerous other designs and creations. The gallery remained open until February 17th. The design also made an appearance at RAPID 2014 Contemporary Art Gallery. To print this vase-lamp, use settings that include zero infill, 1-3 perimeters, and just a few solid layers. Remember to delete the last few layers of code before stopping the print to avoid bridging or cutting off the solid layers post-printing. LED tealights can be inserted for added illumination and ambiance!
