Something a bit more practical made with TopMod, and with a direct reference to RepRap myth and lore: an organic, topologically generated shotglass which should print just fine in a RepRap or MakerBot but be a bit more interesting than the usual spent-ammo-casing tubes...
Afterall, who wants to toast a new 3D printer with something you could make in a lathe or in a mold?
EDIT: Added a variant with a twist. Same licence, download, modify, print... or do what TMR did and make your own from scratch after you see the tutorial video!
EDIT: Added a variant with a flat base and a diamond pattern in the filigree, as per Zach's suggestions. It should print more cleanly.
EDIT: It slices in Skeinforge, and it prints on a MakerBot. Screenshot added.
