This is a resizable vented shade cover - all done in the slicer. Want a shorter wall? Want different X and y dimension? Just turn off scaling and resize it. The flutes make the walls print straight, and the holes in the bottom are all set - as you resize, they'll adjust automatically.
Pictured here is the resizable vented cover applied to my seed sprouting boxes. Some types of seeds require dark or low light to sprout. If your seed starter doesn't seem to work, or if your sprouts are coming out bitter, add some shade and keep your seed sprouts in the deep shade. The initial size of this vented shade cover slips easily over the sides of a Botanical Interests seed sprouter.
How to print - do not import the .3mf file. If you do, you will get a block. Instead, open the .3mf file as a project (e.g. file/open project...) in prusa slicer or Orca Slicer (sorry Bambu users, blame Bambu for corrupting how they use .3mf files).
As provided, the project file is set up for generic PETG profile, and the top/bottom layer counts are set up for .2mm layer height. Wall thickness has been increased to 0.5mm to get extra wall layer bonding in the vase print.
The project is set up as a vase mode print - single wall layers, with a 2mm bottom layer. I printed mine in PETG to make it top shelf dishwasher safe. There are hundreds of negative volumes already set up in the project file - and these are what makes the vent holes in the lid and create the ridges in the side of the model. Without the ridges, the walls will come out wavy.
It takes a few minutes to slice it. I suggest using a satin sheet to make separating the print from the bed without breaking the print or ruining the bed. Smooth sheet would work, but separation will be quite difficult.
