Parametric Vase Mode Filament Spool Storage

Most of the spool storage box designs has a very thick wall thickness for rigidity purpose, but it will make each box 'costly' and 'heavier' to print, This design is to alleviate those issues.

This design also is my very first design to somewhat "hack" vase mode in slicer so that the vase mode in slicer isn't just only for "vase-only" designs.

1. Measure your spool and key in the parameters inside the script.
2. Render and export both “box” and “drill guide".
3. Print “drill guide” with normal settings you always prints.
4. Print the “box” in spiral vase mode

NOTE

Try to print 1 in vase mode first, if the layer adhesion is very poor to your taste, I advise the following

• 0 Top layer
• 0 Infill
• 3 Perimeter
