About this print
A decorative vase with a form based on the geometry of a Reuleaux triangle, generated using OpenSCAD. The body twists along its height, giving it an organic, sculptural profile that suits dried or artificial flower arrangements. It can also serve as a general container for small items on a desk or shelf. PLA is a suitable material for this purely decorative piece, and a silk or matte finish filament can add visual interest to the curved, tapering surfaces.

this vase was created by a **happy accident** while playing around in *openscad*.
and as happy as i am now i'd like to share it with you...
*UPDATE 5th October 2017*
Version 3 is uploaded. This version should be in the right scale (200mm Height)
the design of this vase is based upon a custom made guitar pick/plectron (PLActron - the customizable & biodegradeable guitpick), which is rotated 240 degrees around the z-axis an extruded along a sine in z.
casually inspired by:

* Thing 745938 - [PLActron](http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:745938) (yet unpublished)
