Spiraling vase

A new addition to the series of vases with unusual geometries. The spiraling curves introduce some stiffness to the thin wall structure. A parametric modell in Grasshopper allows for adjusting the spirals and the general outer shape of the vase.

The geometry is intended to be printed in vase mode. In the .3mf-file there's a scaling factor set of 136% to achieve a height of 200 mm.

Overall dimensions of the STL:

  • Max. diameter: ~ 77 mm
  • Height: 147 mm

Geometry was created using Rhino/Grasshopper.
Toolpath of the model exported with PrusaSlicer.

Print Settings

Printer: generic

Rafts: No

Supports: No

Resolution: 0.3 mm

Infill: no, use vase/spiral mode

Filament: generic PLA 

Notes:

Default settings with a 0.2/0.3mm layer height should work. Activate vase or spiral mode in your slicer. Supports are not needed.
