Two Part Balcony Planter

prusaprinters

<p>This planter should fit on balcony rails with a width of up to 45mms.&nbsp;</p><p>It comes with 3 options you can combine as you wish:</p><ul><li>self-watering reservoir planter with water level indicator (TBD)</li><li>draining planter with drain hole for excess water</li><li>normal bucket style planter without any special holes</li></ul><p>The inserts can be easily removed to switch plants or check for issues, simply use any suitable strap you can find and attach it to the insert with a M3 screw or print the included handle on your printer.(TBD)</p><p>If you don't have enough plants to warrant the big version, you can use one half together with the mounting clip for a half-sized planter with a bit of storage space for gardening tools like scissors or thread.</p><p>Print the buckets with the top-side down so you save on support material for the 90deg edge, works <i>okayish</i> even without support if you print it at a 45°angle to the bed (rotation in z, so the nozzle makes straight lines across the width of the print, tested on i3mega)</p><p>After printing simply rotate the two halves against each other to combine them together.</p><p><strong>Update:</strong> I've added v3 of the planter-halves with a little greater tolerances.</p><p><strong>Update: </strong>New version 4 with increased tolerances for “less than ideal” printers and bit more ease of assembly, also uses slicer hack now to work better without support.</p>
