Hexafoil Vase

This vase is based on the principle of a hexafoil, which is the result of an arrangement of multiple identical circles connected to the points where they meet. This makes for a clear geometric shape that you can see in the main shape of the vase which is the outer edge that six circles create, adorned with the protruding flower petal-shapes that form inside the arrangement of circles. In effect, it's a combined dance of multiple surfaces that I hope you will enjoy

Below are the main parameters of this model

• 1 mm line width. You can print this with the regular 0.4mm nozzle since it is within the formula of (nozzle size * 2) + layer height. If you use 0.8 mm here, you can freely choose the layer height
• 0.2mm layer height, which complements the line width above. You can reduce any visible layer lines by tuning this parameter, but remember to also reduce the line width and note that the rigidity of the vase will be affected
• 6 bottom layers. This gives the vase a nice solid foundation and reduces the chance of bottom layer issues

Please enjoy and try out different colors as well as their combinations, and if you have a yearning to get a version of this in a different size just let me know and I can draw it for you. Scaling the model may work to some extent but there is a risk

Thank you for taking a look at my model!
