Planter “Extra”
More plants in less space! This design lets you add an additional plant into a big pot.
It drains through the funnel into the bigger pot. You can rotate the planter on the funnel, and the entire assembly rotates freely around the stem. This way you can position it to get the maximum amount of sunlight while also making sure that it won’t break if you bump against it. It will just spin out of the way.
Due to the overhang at the bottom of the funnel, your print might shrink a little, for that scenario I also included a screw that is 1.5 mm shorter. Use that as backup if the default one sits too loose!

I printed the part called planter extra, and I'm not sure what that's all about! I'm guessing it's an optional extra, but not sure how to use it!
