About this model

50 mm Net Pot / Net Cup — redesigned for FDM (no supports) A hydroponic net pot (net cup) that actually prints clean on a normal FDM printer. Most net pots on Thingiverse are injection-moulding geometry exported to STL: rectangular side slots with long flat unsupported top edges. On an FDM machine that first layer over a slot is a 9–10 mm bridge, and it sags, strings, and leaves a rough lip you have to clean off twelve times per pot. This one keeps the same open area and the same drainage, but every opening is shaped so the printer only ever has to bridge a fraction of a millimetre at a time. No supports, no brim, no cleanup.
