Big flower pot for herb pots of 485 x 81 x 80 cm

In Poland fresh herbs are often being sold in pots of 70x70x80 mm. That pots are quite small, so there is a problem when it comes to water them frequently. A lot of people forget to do it, including myself. That’s the reason I decided to construct one big flower pot, in which you can put the small ones together and then pour water. Ultimately, system will be pouring water automatically to fill up a flower pot. The length of a pot depends on a number of inside parts (part_v2, 6 for me). There is an outside ornament made of sheet metal in order to improve the appearance (last photo). How to do: Print it in a way, that visible projections are on a surface of a printer. After printing, cut off the stabilizing projections (in order not to break the fixings – do it softly). You can print two parts together if you can set them properly. During assembly, put silicone in the grooves in order to seal it. The amount of silicone can’t be too small – silicone during assembly have to flow outside. I recommend the colorless one, it will be invisible after gluing together.
