EXTRA SPECIAL THANKS to Nat

https://www.printables.com/@Nat_

Your work—especially on the Spiral Vase Mode Octahedroflake—did more than just influence my designs. When I first saw it, I was so incredibly drawn to its intricate patterns, and that moment sparked my obsession with fractal geometry. Exploring this realm has reshaped the way I think about Art and Math and pushed me to keep learning, experimenting, and sharing. I’m truly grateful for your inspiration and the ion it ignited in me.

This model was created and optimized for FDM printers with vase mode enabled. For best results, use spiral vase mode WITHOUT the "smooth spiral" option checked in your slicer settings. If you don’t see the "smooth spiral" checkbox in your slicer, no worries—just be sure to use Spiralize Outer Contour (or a similarly named option in your slicer, such as spiral/vase mode).

Ensure your slice gap closing radius is set to 0, as this is critical for proper vase mode printing. Without this setting, the slicer may close gaps that are necessary for the model to print correctly.

Enable the skirt option.

While this may sound complicated, slicing this model is actually simple and straightforward as long as you follow the instructions. However, if you find yourself having trouble, I’m happy to help! Leave a comment down below and I'll get back to you as soon as I'm available to do so.
