Ribbon Vase - The flat-printing, flexible vase

The Idea

I've always enjoyed printing vases, and there are a lot of really neat designs out there. I wanted to make a vase that is completely different from anything out there, but remains functional and cool-looking. 

The design prints flat with zero supports, making it very interesting to print and assemble. 

Printing

Resolution: .2mm

Infill: 20%

Perimeters: 2 

Supports: No

Build plate adhesion: No

Notes

The assembly is fun: grab the retention ring and fit the vase arms into the slots one by one. Repeat the process all the way around and you will get a really neat spiral effect. 

Scaling the model may cause problems, but feel free to experiment if you want!

I am also working on a larger version of this vase (that's why there's an extra ring in one of the pictures), so stay tuned for an update!
