Bình thơ tình (Valentine) – Poetic Vase

Experimenting with some new type of knurling I had the idea of using text as knurling pattern, liked the result and applied it to a little vase for valentine's day. Programming this did get a bit mathy to make it look good on the curved shape.

I chose the poem "How Do I Love Thee" from Elisabeth Barrett Browning for this one.

In single color the text is quite unobtrusive, which I find quite charming, while in dual color the text really stands out.

I recommend putting in some weighty things for stable stand.

Printing:

• Single color: Just print. Maybe lower external perimeter (outer wall) speed and accelleration to get a bit sharper corners.

• Dual color: The 3mf consists of two parts, vase body and text. Just assign different colors. Note that this implies a LOT of color changes, which depending on your multi-color setup may take very long and produce very much waste.
