Hollow Form Hybrid Model
The Model
We decided to name this model The Hour Glass of Clams. This design is made up of my Twisted Clams model and Brandon's Hour Glass model. We decided to try and make one model flow into the other one. We made our hybrid model a vessel, only having one 2 layer perimeter wall, no top and a 2 layer bottom. joining the two models proved challenging, but after some experimentation we figured out to get them the Boolean Union, we had to make a joining object. The joining object is shaped like an egg with the longer half sticking into the bottom model.
To get this model print better, I need to increase the size of the egg shaped joining object in the bottom half of the print so that it intersects with the parts that try to start printing in mid air. This model would then be perfect.
