I'd like to extend a big thanks to Hyungsoo Kim who posted on the Grasshopper forum that provided the fundamental definition for this part. I built upon his work by adding additional Grasshopper components, a top and bottom surface, and tweaked the geometry just enough to make it 3D printable. My AAtom2 delta-style printer took approximately 24 hours to print this part at a layer height of 0.200 mm and a print speed of 100 mm/sec. Check out this short 3D rotation video showing off the part: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VB9xIXqSA1A. The second photo showcases the dish with tortellini, cashews, and dried apricots. It's not the most appealing combination, but it's what I had readily available.
