EchoForm Factory-- Fancy Bowl

Echoform™ Bowl: 

One File, Infinite Designs.  It could even be used as an orchid planter.

Please be patient as the bowl generates, and load.  It's a complex file for them to process. 

One file. Many shapes. Meet the Echoform™ Bowl, a gorgeous, simple, and elegant design that you bring to life.

An Echoform™ isn't just a static model; it's a dynamic template where your choices echo throughout the design, creating a form that is uniquely yours. It takes advantage of a brand-new parametric feature on MakerWorld, allowing you to customize your model directly in your browser before printing.

This is a gorgeous, simple and elegant bowl.  

Click “customize” to change:

• The bowl diameter (approximate)
• The complexity.  The number of revolutions
• The wall thickess of the bowl
• The segment thickness of the individual elements

Please note:  Your final design SHOULD/COULD look very different compared my photos.  That is the beauty of this new feature.    If your review says “it looks completely different from the photos, but it's so so pretty…”… then.. MISSSION ACCOMPLISHED.  :)     

Keep reading, please.   Quality is paramount to me, but this is a very new feature here on Makerworld.   It IS possible to create a bowl that will be very difficult to print.  BambuSlicer will notify you if you need to turn on “supportss.   If it were me, I'd look at the model and revise it here in this tool, until no supports are needed.  Nobody likes supports.. :)

These models take more time to load during the design process than we're normally accustomed to.  Please be patient after selecting “generate”.    After the generation is complete it will take a few more moments to load the model.  Bambu is currently offering this customization feature free right now, but they've said that may change.   Each modeling session costs them with a 3rd party service  that provides the computational “umph”.  

You can adjust the over all size of the bowl and the complexity with the number of rotations of the lace form.  It was be either very simple with a few of the “swirls”, or incredible detailed with many of the “swirls”
 

Special Note:  Click on “customize”.   Please be patient, as the design will load and refresh a bit more slowly that we are accustomed to. 

I am adding a few screenshots so that you can see the wide range of bowls possible with this model.

Please note:  You MAY be able to push the setting the limits in certain ways that may cause BambuSlicer to recomment supports.   In general, I personally don't care for supports, so I'd recommend adjusting the parameters a bit and trying again.

Also remember after the model is in your slicer, you can adjust the overall scale.   This is just another way to fully customize.

I can't wait to see what YOU make with this tool.  Please share photos.
