Best material:

PLA+ recommended for precise geometric edges and clean lattice definition.

Matte or gradient PLA enhances the faceted structure.

Resin suitable for smaller wearable versions requiring smoother edge transitions.

Layer height:

FDM (Creality K1C): 0.12 mm for crisp polygon edges

0.16 mm acceptable for larger decorative scaling

Resin: 0.03–0.05 mm for high-detail finish

Supports:

No supports required.

The geometric honeycomb lattice maintains controlled overhangs under 45° when printed upright or slightly angled.

Infill:

20% gyroid for decorative version

100% if scaled to wearable size for strength

Walls:

3–4 perimeters recommended to reinforce lattice intersections and improve durability.

Orientation:

Print standing upright as shown to preserve symmetry and consistent layer alignment across the hexagonal grid.

Align seam to an inner edge to reduce visible artifacts on outer faces.

Scale Suggestions:

18–22 mm inner diameter → wearable geometric ring

60–80 mm → modern desk sculpture

120 mm → architectural display object
