How it works
Connect the thick insert with a syringe to insert water drops.
The three different sizes of inserts illustrate the gradual growth process of stalagmites and stalactites, with each insert representing a stage of mineral buildup over time. As water drips and deposits minerals, the structures grow larger, eventually meeting to form a column.
Printing
No need for supports! Especially avoid placing any in the water channel, as they’ll be tricky to remove.
