Description
Many pieces, recursively composable.
A useful meditation. 𐂷

This prints faster than you would expect -- especially if you tune the size such that the pieces are double walled.
As the pieces get smaller, more fit on the build platform. Using multiply also helps the small pieces come out cleanly. I believe you can, for the most part, fit each level of the tree on one plate, using a multiple scheme like below ( from large to small ) :
1 = 1
2 = 1 x 2
4 = 2 x 2
8 = 2 x 4
16 = 4 x 4
32 = 8 x 4
64 = 8 x 8

This is awesome - I'm printing it in translucent red and it looks very good with a light shining up from below.
Nice. I was thinking, since the stems are hollow, you should be able to stick some LED lighting inside. Also, not sure what to do for 'leaves' yet ( initial attempts to make literal leaves looked terrible ).
