Small Watering Can

thingiverse

Also featured - slightly scaled up - by Angus in Maker's Muse on YouTube.. I needed a small watering can for the office, so I designed one after my fancy. I decided to make it a vase, because I just love those seamless surfaces and I had an idea how to incorporate a rigid grip (that worked very well). It holds up to about 150 ml, which should be plenty for my good old Zamioculcas, Bonsai, cacti or other succulents. Of course you can use it as a coffee milk jug as well, just please take care to print with a food safe material then. I always use concentric bottom layers for this, linear infills tend to have minimal gaps at the outer edges. If your print still leaks, you can try to increase the extrusion multiplier a tiny bit and/or add more bottom layers. I'd love to see your Make! :) Print Settings Printer: Malyan M200 Rafts: No Supports: No Resolution: 0.3 Notes: These are the settings for the white version in my pics.
