Tidal (Engagement) Ring

When it came time to finally ask the big question, what better way than with my own parametrically designed 3D printed engagement ring?? She said yes, I am now happily married. :)

The central design element, the wave, serves as a subtle visual reminder that a long-term relationship has its ups and downs. It takes compromises and flexibility to ensure a great and lasting partnership.

The design was parametrically designed in Grasshopper for Rhino (see screenshot attached). Scaling the model is possible directly in the slicer, although I would recommend choosing the correct size from the uploaded files. All sizes are loaded in the 3mf file. I have added the most common sizes from 3 (14mm inner diameter) to 13.5 (22.6mm inner diameter).

Printing:

Profile: 0.08 Extra Fine
