Emergence Vase

Low poly and high poly, smooth and lumpy, organic and geometric, past and future. The Emergence Vase is a compilation of contrasts. Is the vase carved from its surroundings or revealed through erosion? Either way, enjoy its emergence from its encasement.

Model Details

Everything prints without supports! Variations described below.

Print in Two Parts
The "outside" part prints on its own without supports. Print the "inside gap fit" vase separately and then place it inside the outside part. Use the "gap fit solid for vase mode" if you want to print the vase in vase mode or with a few perimeters rather than the regular vase model.

Print as a Single Model
The "together single model" has both parts merged together for single printing. Looks great in a marble-type filament. This is not designed for vase mode printing.

Print Together with Two Colors
Also included is the "inside exact fit" vase meant for printing the vase and the outside part in two colors together as one print.

My original vision for this design was to have a large, two-color, dual extrusion print. I tried printing it with my dual extruder printer and it had a layer shift in the early hours of printing and I stopped it. However, this setback led me to take a closer look at the model and I realized that I could probably print the pieces separately and set the vase inside the outer part.

Original draft designs would not have allowed for separate printing, but I had to make adjustments for it to be printable. The final design worked out to have it print cleanly with separate parts and with no supports!

Note
This vase is based on my Vase for Stripes, but the vases have slightly different dimensions. Use the Emergence Vase files provided here for proper fit and sizing.

Together the vase is approximately 116 x 88 x 200 mm. There is a 0.5 mm gap between the "gap fit" vase and the outside part, so any rescaling of the models would change that tolerance too.

I printed everything with 0.3 mm layer height, 10% infill, and no supports.*

For the "together single model" I used 3 top and bottom layers and 2 perimeters until about height 185 mm when I switched to 3 perimeters for a cleaner look at the top.

When printing the outside part by itself, I removed top and bottom layers between 2.5 mm and 185 mm to save on print time. This could be done on the together model too. After 185 mm, 3 top layers were included through the rest of the print.

*Vase mode vase was printed in vase mode with typical settings.

Enjoy!
