Embossed Heart Vase by Garret-Hafer

Last crawled date: 3 years, 1 month ago

This was a vase I designed for my daughter. The current height is 2.52633734 inches so scale in your slicer accordingly to get the desired height (i.e. if you want a 7 inch vase (7in/2.526in)X100%=277% scaling factor.) Also, the bottom diameter is 1.18110236in and top diameter is 1.95019915in. The attached image shows a larger version without the rounded face of the embossed hearts. This file is not attached but can be if you really wanted it.
I used Cura as my slicer and if you haven’t used the spiralize ("vase mode") functionality of Cura it is pretty easy. You first need to leave the recommended settings and go into custom. From here you can hover over and one of the drop down list i.e. Quality, Shell,Infill etc. and as you do a small gear appears. Clicking this from any one of the drop-down menus takes you into Curas massive list of custom settings. Use the search menu at the top and type in spiralize. With Cura 3.2 there are two options check the first one for sure as this enables the spiralize functionality. The second, Smooth spiralized contours, doesn’t do much for this vase but checking it and even using it won’t hurt.
Thanks for looking!
