Plant Pot 3D print model

You can make your own repeatable concrete plant pots. The idea of this set is for you to 3d print all the objects, stick the pot to a foam board along with the mold supports, pour liquid silicone to form a reusable silicone mold and then pour your own concrete mix as many times as you want. The reality is that 3d printing a direct mold ends up being more messy and doesn’t have as much reusability as silicone molds, the industry standard. This pot has a height of 62mm which is great for mini plants.

3D printing settingsI printed this on an Elegoo Saturn resin printer. I have included two versions, one with and one without a bevel at the bottom. The bevels purpose is so that the file can be printed on a resin printer with a flex plate, to minimize any elephant foot effect. Despite so many saying it doesn’t work printing flat on the bed, I print the vast majority of my objects this way and have zero problems, give it a go! Once you have printed your plant pot, I recommend spraying with Tamiya glossy spray. This will give you an even smoother finish to help make your mold turn out the best.

Let me know if you have any trouble with the file and I will do my best to respond.
