For decor use: If you want to use it for: faux plants dried flowers storage prop decor check the internal size in your slicer and scale if needed. If scaling up or down, make sure the pot and saucer are scaled by the exact same percentage so the bayonet connection still fits correctly. Can be safely scaled down to about 70%. 🖨️ Printing Instructions Recommended materials: PLA PLA+ PETG Suggested settings: 0.2 mm layer height 3–4 walls 15–20% infill for the pot increase walls or infill if you want extra durability Tips: Print the pot upright Print the saucer separately Test the bayonet fit before final finishing Clean up the locking tabs and slots if needed for a smoother twist fit If your printer tends to print tight tolerances, a light sanding on the connection points may help For real plant use, PETG is a nice option if you want better moisture resistance than standard PLA. 🎨 Finishing Tips This planter looks especially good with textured finishes.
