Gyroid Plant Tray or Coaster – Minimal Filament

🌿 Gyroid Plant Tray or Coaster – Minimal Filament Design

Sometimes the simplest designs are the most satisfying.
I created this tray for a coworker who needed a clean, functional drip tray for her plants — but the design turned out so elegant that the 4" version doubles perfectly as a modern coaster.

The chamfered profile, exposed gyroid surface, and zero-waste print path make this a joy to print and display. Whether you use it under a pot, beside a keyboard, or as a drink rest, it brings that maker-crafted texture and geometry to any desk or shelf.

⚙️ Design Features

• Exposed Gyroid Pattern: Both decorative and functional — allows airflow, drainage, and visual depth.
• Chamfered Edge: Sleek geometry complements minimalist décor.
• Minimal Filament, Maximum Strength: Structural gyroid base eliminates the need for infill waste.
• Flat Print: No supports, no brim, no cleanup.
• Multi-Use Design: Ideal as a plant drip tray, coaster, or display base.

🪴 Print Recommendations

• Material: PLA, PETG, or CF-PLA for added rigidity.
• Layer Height: 0.2 mm recommended.
