The Moss Planter is an organic and multi-textured item that will make a great home for your favorite houseplant. This unique and satisfying style is accomplished by combining standard and 'Fuzzy Skin' printing. Follow the printing guidelines below for a successful result! Download includes versions with and without holes (Planter vs Container), as well as a lid, and a drip tray (other drip trays shown in the photos may not be included).

This version of the planter is 80mm in diameter and 100mm tall.

Printing Guidelines

• 3MF files for Bambu Studio and Prusa Slicer are included with the multi-texture settings already applied, but I still suggest you review the settings and slicer preview to make sure everything looks right for your setup

• Combine 'Main' and 'Fuzzy' parts to print together. 'Main' prints with standard settings (0.16mm layer height, 2-3 perimeters, 5 top layers, 0.4mm outer wall width). For the 'Fuzzy' part, set perimeters to 1, infill to 0%, and enable Fuzzy Skin on 'All walls' with point distance of '0.5mm' and thickness of '1mm'.

• You can save some time and material by reducing the default value for 'Minimum sparse infill threshold' to 5mm².

Importing STLs as multipart models

• For Bambu Studio/Orca Slicer, drag both files into the slicer together and select 'Yes' to the prompt 'Load these files as a single object with multiple parts?' Now you can individually modify parameters under the 'Objects' setting tab.

• For Prusa Slicer, ensure that you are in 'Expert Mode'. First, import the 'Main' body, then right click on the name in the lefthand parts list, and click 'Add Part>Load' to add the 'Fuzzy' body. Now you can right click that part in the same list and go to 'Add Settings' to add 'Layers and Perimeters > Perimeters' + 'Infill > Fill density' + 'Fuzzy Skin > Fuzzy Skin + Fuzzy skin point distance + Fuzzy skin thickness'. That will add the ability to adjust those settings individually.
