This breathtaking 17 cm tall 3D printed vase only took a little over 4 hours with Spiralize Outer Contour activated! The Spiralize Outer contour setting in Cura, also known as vase mode in other 3D slicers clearly offers the best bang for your Octoprint time lapse buck when it comes to size and speed. Time lapsing a vase mode 3D print come to life is almost as much fun as seeing the finished product.

Remember to set the printer in Cura to Spiralize mode or you will end up with a sold block instead of a vase! Like what you see?

How Time Lapse 3D Prints Work
After each .2 MM layer( That is barely thicker than a sheet of paper!) the 3D printer pauses, moves the extruder to the rear of the printer, takes a photo and then continues the print giving the illusion of the print appearing from thin air.
