Description

Ok, I first started out seeing if my Thing-O-Matic could print Tony Cervantes's flower thingiverse.com/thing:5883 . To my surprise, it did. So I modified it a little to add a base to the flower so that I could attach a stem, and then created a vase to put it in. Yes, the vase printed to my surprise also!

Instructions

Print Flower, Flower_vase, and stem. Glue the stem into the flower base via acetone or your favorite glue. I decided not to create a hard and fast hole in the vase but an area that you can drill the size hole you want as you may want just the vase for something else. Once you drill a hole place the stem into the hole and glue.

The scale of the flower and vase may need to be adjusted to your requirements.

I got both the flower and vase to print beautifully but every time I go to print the stem the Replicator 2 makes a motion to start the build but once it centers it quits. The file is only 970 bites which sounds small. Any help would be greatly appreciated. My students are wild about building a garden!

Ah, the file you have for the stem is corrupt. it should be 24.7KB try
and get it again from http://www.thingiverse.com/dow...

Hope that works for you. Have fun..

info: nail polish remover, pure acetone, works great as glue.
