This is a series of planters that for now i'm calling the Droid Planters, primarily because my fiance says the remind her of droids. The overall goal with these planters was to create a "modern futuristic" look. I wanted them to be able to be printed in a variety of different color schemes and assembled without the need for a multi-color printer. These designs print support-free, and there are elements that both screw together and glue together.
As of writing this, there are 2 planters in this series.
Printing Info: These are just the settings I used to test the model, feel free to use whatever settings work best for you. FDM or Resin: FDM Scaling: I have not yet attempted to scale down, some of the smaller threaded elements may have issues. Supports: None Infill/Perimeters: 15% Infill + 2 Perimeters Nozzle Size: 0.4 Layer Height: 0.2
Printing & Assembly: All pieces print support free in the orientation they import in. The only pieces that will need to be glued in afterwards are the face plates and eyes. The legs slide in place and are secured by the leg caps and the drip tray slides into place.
