5 Styles — Spiral Planter Collection

Five clean, printable planter pots that show off different parametric surface styles — each can add an elegant twist up the height for that spiraled look. Want new sizes or variations? Customize in your browser: 👉 potfoundry-pro.pages.dev

Includes

5 ready-to-print STLs, one per style:

1. Superformula Blossom

2. Fourier Bloom

3. Spiral Ridges

4. Superellipse Morph

5. Harmonic Ripple

Each demo model: drainage hole, sensible wall/bottom thickness, and a gentle rim for easy printing.

Twist Controls (the fun bit)

All styles support a global twist. You can adjust:

Total turns (how much it spirals)

Phase offset (where the spiral starts)

Easing (how the twist ramps from base to rim) The five sample STLs range from subtle to bold so you can choose the vibe.

Print Settings (tested ranges)

Material: PLA or PETG (PETG/ASA recommended for outdoor use)

Layer height: 0.20 mm (0.28 mm drafts also fine)

Walls/Perimeters: 3–4

Bottom layers: 5–6 (strong base)

Infill: 10–20% (grid/gyroid)

Supports: as needed

Bed adhesion: Brim optional on tall/high-twist variants Tip: For tall pots or stronger walls, bump perimeters or scale Z only +2–5%.

Customize Your Own

Open the app to resize, tune style knobs, and add twist. Live preview and one-click STL export make iteration quick. Advanced users can also export a YAML recipe for repeatable batches. 👉 https://potfoundry-lite.streamlit.app/

Scaling & Remix Notes

Uniform scaling keeps proportions; if you scale down a lot, add an extra perimeter to keep walls robust.

Want a decorative vase mode? Disable drainage, use spiral/vase mode with 0% infill and thicker base layers; apply a sealant if you need it watertight.

Feel free to remix the styles — please credit “PotFoundry”.

Status

The web app is actively developed; core functionality works well and STL output is solid. Minor UI quirks may appear while it’s polished.

Superformula Blossom — Petal-like lobes shaped by the gentle twist for a blooming spiral.

Fourier Bloom — Smooth, wavy walls blended from harmonic curves.

Spiral Ridges — Bold vertical ribs that catch light.

Superellipse Morph — Square-to-round transition up the height; subtle twist keeps it modern.

Harmonic Ripple — Fine ripples for a refined texture.
