In this video, I teach you how to create a vase for 3d printing by using FreeCAD and then how to optimize the design in both Vase Mode and with Standard Cura 4.X slicer settings to produce beautiful prints. I begin by explaining the Revolution function in FreeCAD, which is similar to the Revolve function in Fusion 360. Then I show you how to use VASE MODE in your slicer, called spiralizer mode in Cura 4.4, to hollow out a solid model. After explaining vase mode, I proceed to demonstrate how to achieve similar results with thicker walls by manually setting slicer settings.
After examining the print produced with this technique and discussing why these approaches will not work for the vase design we want, we return to FreeCAD and create an alternative model, slice it and print it with new settings that produce an excellent print.
Please leave comments so we can continue to learn together.
