This large pot is the first in my **VESUVIUS Collection**, which features dense herringbone ribs to increase strength while creating a dramatic form.

VESUVIUS 001 is 250 mm tall and 250 mm in diameter at the top. The bottom footprint has a 190 mm footprint. This was designed for use with my [250 mm Floating Drip Tray](https://than.gs/m/1027171?affiliateCode=MAKE) to catch excess water runoff.

**_Printing Guidelines_**

The **VESUVIUS** series of prints are designed to be printed in vase/spiral mode in your slicer. For full scale I suggest printing with a **1 mm nozzle width** (even with a 0.4mm nozzle) and 1.6mm of solid bottom layers. No top layers. **Make sure your slicer is not set to close small gaps.** In BambuStudio I set the _'Slice gap closing radius'_ to 0 mm

For the 'wHole' version of the vase mode print, use the maximum number of solid bottom layers before the holes are covered to avoid interfering with the spiral printing. You can also print the version without holes and simply drill/cut your own drainage holes in the bottom after printing if you plan on growing live plants.

I've also included a 'Solid' version for standard printing, with roughly 3mm thick walls. This will be extra strong, but uses much more material, and I've found the 1mm vase mode version to be sufficient, even at this large size.

MERIDIAN 001 is a lovely stout pot divided through the center. Pair the design with a filament swap for a striking piece that will surely make both you and your plants happy. BONUS: You can always use these pots as containers for other purposes. Scale as you wish to suit your needs :)

This pot includes a drainage hole on the bottom for growing live plants and pairs well with my [200 mm Floating Drip Tray](https://than.gs/m/1027158?affiliateCode=MAKE) to allow for excess runoff.

There was initially a glitch exporting the STL which caused some extra artifacts on the bottom half of the photographed model. I've since fixed that, but included _'MERIDIAN_001_old.stl'_ as well in case you like that look.

**_Printing Guidelines_**
Default print settings should work fine, though you may want to increase wall/shell count to help with water tightness. I used 3 shells, 8 solid top layers, and 15% gyroid infill at 0.16 mm layer height.
