🌀 Design Concept

This is my first real dive into designing a 3D-printable vase! Inspired by Shop Therapy’s polygon vase tutorial on YouTube, I put my own spin on it and ended up creating three variations of a hexagon vase. It definitely took a few trial runs to get it just right, but the learning process was worth it.

Included in this upload are:

Polygon Vase – features a base and flared lip at the top.

Simple Hexagon Vase – a clean and elegant profile, ideal for vase mode.

Tall Hexagon Vase – the same as the simple version, just stretched vertically for added presence!

This model is a thank-you to the community: "My vase to you 😉"

Pictured prints used Creality’s beautiful Soleyin PLA colors: Matte Fluorite, Rose Stone, and Matte Moonstone — they really make the facets pop.
