If you want, you can set one of them 0.1mm larger than the other.</p><p>It might take a considerable amount of time for Fusion to update the model, once you change the parameters. I have found it is faster if you roll the history marker to before the two last operations. After you changed the parameters, you can roll the marker back and get your vase or export it solid and print in vase mode.</p><figure class="image image_resized" style="width:50%;"><img src="https://media.printables.com/media/prints/226685/rich_content/8f0db492-c2d4-447f-8e59-d12879c5246b/image.png#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%22a1b687e5-2a05-41e1-a73a-489055096880%22%2C%22w%22%3A362%2C%22h%22%3A56%7D"></figure><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Fusion 360 is free for hobby use but if you don't have access to it, leave a comment with the parameters you desire and can upload an STL for you.</p>
