Filter holder
For shaping and holding the filter. You will also need some kind of fabric to stretch on the end, and a bit of string to hold it in place. Add some potato or corn starch to the fabric before using it to prevent the clay from sticking to the fabric.
Cutting cones
For cutting the holes on the filter
Print instructions
- Print in vase mode
- Use the smallest nozzle possible (I used 0.2mm)
- Use variable layer height to have smaller layers on top (for a smoother cutting end), and larger layers on the bottom (to improve print speed)
- Use a round file to sharpen from the inside and a fine flat file to sharpen from the outside
- If you want different hole sizes, you can adjust the diameter using XY size compensation (in PrusaSlicer, go to print settings > advanced)
Edit 2024-08-30: added a buldge to stack the cones without getting stuck
Forming stick
For forming the body of the teapot from the inside
Print instructions
- You may need to sand the edges
