Make free, biodegradable seedling pots from old newspaper. Plant the whole pot out later: the paper rots away and the roots aren't disturbed.

HOW TO USE

• Cut a strip of newspaper about 10 cm wide and wrap it round the former, with about 2 cm hanging off the bottom.

• Fold the overhang in over the end of the former.

• Push the former into the base and twist: the ridges crimp the bottom flat. Slide the pot off and fill it with compost.

DETAILS

• Makes 50 mm pots up to about 60 mm tall; base 82 mm across with a wide foot.

• Prints with no supports: both parts stand upright, the handle tapers in at 45 degrees and the ridges stand straight up.

• Bambu Studio: 2 h 11, 73 g for both parts.

CUSTOMIZE (OpenSCAD)

Pot diameter, former length and the paper gap in the base.
