Ok, I spent the morning working on a spider planter because I need to split my spider plant into more pots. I just started the print, so we'll see how it goes. I did some interesting things with this guy that I haven't done before (that make it harder to print) but I think it's going to be awesome!
I wanted to do black and purple but my black spool was too low, so I am doing Brown and Green instead. I'll post pictures assuming it doesn't mess up during print.
That's awesome! It still blows my mind how quickly you 3d printer people cam whip something up. Fingers crossed for the print !
I made the first one super small, only big enough for a starter but I think I'm going to make the second one much bigger. The legs are pretty fragile.
I made it so it stands on its own legs! He hovers over the tray!
I love it! Can't believe you got this done in a day. Well done!
Thanks for the ideas. I'll probably spend some time over this week making some refinements and enlarging it. I'd be happy to send you one when it's all done. Just let me know. I think I might put the .STL on printables when it's better.
