Yet Another Self-watering Insert for a Planter

prusaprinters

Why Another Self-watering Insert?I wanted an insert for some existing Ikea planters I already had. My original self-watering planter didn't really fit the shape so I thought I'd build a more tapered approach.  I chose the insert to stick out of the planter for a design aesthetic but you could also have it flush too.Idea was a redesign of my other self-watering planter insert here:https://www.printables.com/model/178370-scalable-self-watering-planter-insert-with-optiona Scale and Resize it in your SlicerThe easiest way to fit this to your planter is to measure the diameter and depth and set the size in your slicer subtracting a mm or 2 to fit. This design has a gradual outward curve that hopeful would work for most cylindrically shaped pots.Print SettingsPrints without supports, brims or rafts0.20mm Layer Height works wellPLA works well indoors while PETG or other higher temp better for outdoors (I've had darker PLA filaments melt and warp in the sun.)Fusion 360 File Available NowWant to remix? I've included the parametric model for Fusion 360. Just open up the parameters and adjust your sizes. Hopefully the model is very clean to work with.Support the project or show your appreciation at https://ko-fi.com/Joshed3D
