These Vases are printed using the “spiral outer contour mode” in Cura.
The red vase is printed 200% so it’s 506.5mm high. It is so big that the plastic became a bit to heavy and so it suffered a bit of warping. I used a 0.5mm nozzle for this one, but I wish I used a 0.8 mm. Print time was just under 24hours.
The gold PLA vase is 100% and thus 253.25mm high. This one printed fine.
