Love monstera variegata? Everyone does! It's a remarkable plant. Here’s a model of monstera albo variegata plant with six easily detachable leaves that can be used as coasters.

Description and assembly

The model contains these objects: pot, soil, two stems and six leaves.

Assembly is very easy. No magnets or glue are needed. Soil goes in the pot, stems go in the soil and leaves go on top of the stems.

The assembled model has approx dimensions: 20x20x27cm.

About the model

The model is divided in several objects:

• Plant pot – Dimensions: 65x65x55mm.
• Soil – Contains 4 holes for stems. Two holes are shallower (15mm), the other two are deeper (20mm).
• Leaves – There are 6 different leaf designs, all are divided into parts and pre-colored. While printing the leaves there will be 16 color changes. Approx leaf dimensions are: 90x95x3mm. Dimensions vary depending on the leaf design.
• Stems – Stems are also variegated and pre-coloured. There will be 3 color changes while printing them. Stem dimensions: 54x217x5mm. Supports are needed only for the tips of the stems.

Colors:

I printed stems and leaves in dark green, venom green and white color. The pot is black and the soil is dark brown.

Print profiles and suggestions

Printing suggestions:

• Use slightly higher nozzle and bed temperature for the first layer when printing leaves to have less gaps between colors
• Print slower for better quality, set initial layer and initial layer infill to 50 mm/s, outer wall, inner wall and top surface to 100 mm/s
• Supports are needed only for the tips of the stems.

Suggestions for Orca slicer 2.0.0. or above:

• Use scarf seam for printing the pot. With scarf seam the pot is almost seamless. Use these settings in Quality tab:
  • Outer wall width: 0.6mm,
  • Scarf joint seam: Contour,
  • Conditional scarf joint: on,
  • Wall generator: Arachne,
  • Wall printing order: Inner/Outer/Inner.
• Print the stems with Mouse ear type of brim.
• Up the Bottom surface flow ratio to 1.2 so the leaves (printed face-down) have no gaps between colors.
