I downloaded the original from here, but some things were missing and the print settings were not quite to my taste.
Now that I have finished the tower, I would like to share my findings with you :)
In the original, all wall thicknesses were specified as 4 in the first print profile - but for most parts, 2 walls are easily sufficient. I would only recommend 4 wall thicknesses for the pot lid, as this is where the entire weight is borne.
The file says that it fits a 24cm pot - but I bought one with a 28cm diameter at the DIY store. I simply went to the store with the printed lid and tried out where it would fit best. Snap fit :)
The original file contains the 4x-planter with ugly wrinkles (artifacts), I have added a nicer file here so that you don't have the same mistake as me :)
I also added more caps and made inlays for them. So you can print them in a different color and then just press them in, fits wonderfully. Otherwise a light tap with a small hammer.
If you print a 5x-planter, the name tags will no longer fit. They are simply too wide. That's why I drew new ones and added them to the file.
In addition, all the plates are filled up so that the printer is ideally occupied. If you need less, simply delete them.
My recommendation is (everything with 2 walls except the lid):
I am also happy to share my Amazon purchases with you here. I'm from Austria, so the links are from the German Amazon and not the American one, like most of the others :)
You also need:
I used just under 3.5 kg of filament in total. As you can see in the picture, I used 2kg of PETG Stainless Steel and 2kg of PETG Lime Green.
For example: If you print a 5x-planter with 4 walls instead of 2 walls, you'll need 320g instead of 219g of Filament. That makes a difference in terms of quantity :)
Happy Printing!
Edit 12.01.2025:
The User @user_3194745930 made a Lid for 30cm Pots (ACE Buckets) => File can be found here.
Would be nice if anyone could give some feedback :) Thanks
