Yarn Bowl Custom Supports

Yarn Bowl Custom Supports

Description

I could not get the spiral to print correctly on the original model (which is this great design: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3038355). The supports for the spiral would always fall over when the printer went to print on top of them. This is because the spiral is on an area of the bowl that slopes in so the support just had nothing to attach to. So I added custom supports with MeshMixer. With the custom supports in place I didn't need any additional support at all. Near the bottom of the bowl appears to max out at 58 degress of overhang. If your printer can do that then no other support will be needed. I did add support into the small circles as well, in hindsight those were totally unnecessary. I have included my MeshMixer file if you want to remove those.
