Turbine Bowl Lid and Bracelet!
🕑 Added 2021-03-16 15:03:53 +0000 UTCHowdy, wonderful people! You would think I would have learned to include lids with bowls by now! I was too caught up in interesting swirly shapes and didn't even think of it - but now that terrible omission has been corrected, and there's a lid that sits inside the top of the bowl. That's a significant advantage of an inner profile that slopes inwards, it's easy to just make something rest inside nice and neatly.
The main thing with the lid was styling it so that it didn't compete visually with the sides of the bowl, but still matched the bowl itself.
Now, a more unexpected comment on Discord was "hey, could this be made into a bracelet?" I'm not sure how seriously that comment was intended, but now there's a bracelet version!
The bracelet is very similar to the bowl, but in addition to the obvious removal of the base,
a) there's extra material on the top and bottom rims to allow for a bit of bed adhesion during printing, and
b) the inner bumps have also been slimmed down to allow it to fit better on a wrist.
So, if exceedingly chunky bracelets are your thing, enjoy!
Printing Tips
The lid prints base-down, and is a straightforward print, nothing unusual.
The bracelet prints on its side, same orientation the bowl. No supports needed, though watch your bed adhesion, as the contact area isn't huge!
