Magnetic Vase

If your locker or refrigerator needs a little freshening up, try out this vase. It prints a half vase with cutouts to hold magnets. The design is based on Anoved's excellent Customizable Bezier Vase script. The included STLs cover some common magnet sizes and include a blank face you so you can use your slicer to add in your own magnet pattern and size using negative volumes. Note, if your magnets are much thicker than 2mm you probably will protrude into the void of the vase and should use the OpenSCAD file instead.  If you want even more control over the design, you can use the OpenSCAD file to adjust the shape or size of the vase and even accommodate some extreme magnet sizes although in my experience the four thin ones do a great job.

I used two perimeters, 0.2 mm layer height, and a 0.4 mm nozzle. If you keep the default vase shape you shouldn't need supports, you may need a brim if your bed adhesion is low. Depending on how well your printer does overhangs, you may get a little sagging at the top of the magnet holes. This can be cleaned out relatively easily with a knife. Glue the magnets in using your favorite glue (super glue works well). You can get fake flowers from craft stores. Take the vase along so you can make sure the stem(s) fit. Clip the stems to right length. Some tissue can be packed into the vase to hold the flower straight.

Note you will only see the full vase shape in OpenSCAD when you render the file. It can take quite some time.
