This is a group of walled Vases. Please do not use Vase Mode.
The height of the vases are all the same. They measure 240 mm tall. This vase was designed with a flare at the top to give it more of a finished look.
There are subtle differences in each one. One difference is wall thickness. The number in the name of the vase tells you the wall thickness in mm. This pack contains vases with 2, 5 and 8 mm walls.
I varied the wall size so you may choose how sturdy you wish it to feel. This will also vary the print time and filament use for each one.
You will notice that with each wall size difference the vase looks slightly different. There is also one other difference to be noted. On two of the vases I reversed how I built the walls. These are labeled with the word:
Inner
The outer built walled vases have rounded spiraled edges. This gives them a cleaner, smoother look. For those of you who like the crisp, sharp edged look I completed 2mm and 8 mm walled vase with INNER walls. When reversing the walls the edges of the spirals lose their smoothed texture and become sharp edges.
I decided to change things around on these. Its a matter of taste and where you will be using the vase. It can look rounded and smooth for that softer look or if you need something that is sharp, crisp, and clean then you will want the INNER version.
Remember these have set wall thicknesses. If you changed the percentage in you slicer to adjust the size of the vase the wall thickness will also change by that percentage as well.
Example: You increase the size of the vase to 150%. Your wall thickness will also increase by approximately 150%. This will allow you to calculate how thick you walls will be on the vase if you upsized or downsized the vase.
The original wall thickness of either 2, 5 or 8 mm is for the vase at 100%
