For a sturdy, functional vase mode print, I used a 0.8mm E3D V6 nozzle. Find it and other types of nozzles here! (affiliate links) A simple, elegant little dish that fits anywhere in the house. The form is based on a hexagon rotating constantly and expanding quickly at first and then slowly as it rises. I really like the almost skeletal ridges on the outside—they're somehow reminiscent of a seashell. I've included 2 versions of the model: a 'solid' version to be printed in vase mode (which is how I printed the example) and a 'hollow' version to be printed normally.

Hey! Welcome to my page. I'm a full-time college student who designs models for 3D printing in my spare time. My work focuses on taking advantage of the unique aspects of the additive manufacturing process to create functional objects. Mostly, this means that I design usable models of things to which people otherwise might not have easy access (or that I think would benefit from a touch of maker-ness). Take a look at my objects! I hope you like them :)
