💠 Design Features & Source Files
• Fully Scalable: The entire design is completely scalable to fit your specific needs.
• Fusion 360 Source Included: This package includes the original Fusion 360 project file, allowing you to easily adjust and customize all dimensions.
💠 Vase Production Options
• Standard 3D-Printable Vase: A model designed to be fully 3D printed. You can easily add weight to the piece by filling the inside with concrete or plaster. (To achieve this, simply set your slicer settings to 0 top layers and 0% infill).
• Concrete Formwork (Single-Use Mold): A disposable frame designed specifically for casting a concrete vase. It must be printed in PLA and requires only 100 g of filament (~$1 USD). After pouring and curing the concrete, soften the frame using a hairdryer or by pouring boiling water over it. Because PLA has a low softening temperature, you can effortlessly peel the mold away to extract your finished concrete item.
💠 Test Tubes & Accessories
• Default Sizes: By default, the vases feature openings designed to accommodate 20 mm (0.8 in) and 25 mm (1.0 in) test tubes. You can either purchase standard glass tubes separately or 3D print your own using transparent PETG filament. (Be sure to check my separate guide on how to print perfectly transparent tubes!)
• 14 Tube Variations Included: The archive contains 14 distinct tube designs, featuring both straight and pear-shaped profiles (with a wider base).
• Assembly Note: To place a pear-shaped tube into a concrete vase, you must insert it from the bottom and secure it firmly in place using the provided semi-ring lock.
