Introduction: Twisting Planters

About: Robotics and Manufacturing Student at RIT. I try to accelerate learning through projects when I have the time. Haven't had much to share in the past few years, but hope to soon!

I designed a bunch of twisted flowerpots in tinkercad. Heres how.

Step 1: Tools Used

  • Tinkercad

Step 2: Design

  • Start by picking a shape or designing one
  • then flatten shape to a good size like .7
  • press control d then move up duplicate .7 and turn 1 degree
  • you can make it slightly larger or smaller depending on how you want it to look
  • Hold control d and it will duplicate that stop when it hits the size you want
  • Cut hole in it and your done
  • The one with the stars I filled in some bottom layers and did star pattern for rest
  • also filled in bottom for the one that holds 3 flowers
