Description
Here's another vase. It's spiky and twisty and a great conversationalist.
Shown here printed in Taulman 618 nylon. I can squeeze it as hard as I can and it doesn't break despite only being 2 perimeters thick. Plus it's shiny. Fun stuff!

Instructions
I would scale up a little bit if you can. Wish I'd printed a bit bigger.
Print with zero infill and no top solid layers.

wasn't one of the properties of taulman nylon that you could make instant sieves with it? In other words: is it watertight?

OK, totally watertight with a better print. Tested and confirmed letting a printed nylon cup sit overnight full of water.

I know nylon absorbs water, but I don't know about the water tightness. This particular print wasn't, but the leaks seemed to be a result of imperfect retraction settings with a thin wall. Now I'm curious.

I have some nylon on order and I'm psyched!
Looking to use it to make some molds for
resin and wax for lost wax casting.
nice to see some other artists taking the plunge to use it.

I made mine 2x the size on the ultimaker on high res mode via cura. Took 9+ hrs. Very cool.
Nice print! What color is that?
