Accordion Vase
Description
This was my fist attempt at making something in Fusion360 so it's not earthshattering or anything but I thought it would be fun to upload it and see how I've progressed at CAD in a few years, LOL. The stock picture was printed in Fillamentum CPE (copolyester.) It's basically like PETG but with another monomer attached, making it a bit stronger. I was drawn to the gorgeous pink color. When printed thin, this material is a bit flexible which is neat! You can read more about it here: https://fillamentum.com/collections/cpe-filaments/products/cpe-hg100-pink-blush-transparent (their shipping is kinda expensive for us USA folks; I ended up getting a spool on Amazon) I plan to make one out of nylon soon too. I have not managed to make one water-tight but I also have minimal experience with spiral vase mode. I advise not using spiral vase mode if you are printing this in CPE...unless you are hardcore at 3D printing, because I failed a few times and finally gave up on spiral vasing it! The seam is really not noticeable. I think if you increase the temp of the first couple layers, it will improve adhesion and enable watertight-ness.
