Spring is just around the corner!
I'm not sure if these are really all that cost effective or practical for being printed on a 3d printer instead of cheap vacuum molded ones you can buy at your local greenhouse. But sometimes one of these things blows away and all you really need is one replacement insert / receptacle.
I've tried to include a 1mm thick version, and if that's too thin a 2mm thick version. I've tried to include both a 6-cell tray version and a 4-cell tray version. If 2mm is still too thin i could probably make a 3mm thick version, but i doubt you would want to go thicker than that. If for some reason you need STEP or IGES files please leave a comment.
PLA should work for an environmentally friendly plastic, but it will probably be inflexible and brittle (but maybe that's all you need). A highly flexible filament might work better as it might allow easy removal of plants and reuse, but it would not be environmentally friendly. Wood filaments like coconut or coffee bean filament might work well too, who knows. Whatever type of filament you decide to try i hope you find these CAD models to your benefit and liking.
As always, if you like my designs please post photos of any that you print and use. And feel free to visit my blog if you'd like to read about my projects (link can be found in my profile). And like with 90% of my designs i will post this one early before i get a chance to print one and test, just in case someone wants to do so before i do.
