I don’t have any practical experience with 3d printing (yet), but it has my attention
So i’ve made an attempt to re-draw your model, as follows:
- your model as reference
- first face
- pushpulled bucket
- determined parts
- pushpulled parts
- moved connecting funnel edges to depth
- added wholes
- xray finished part
What was the result of the last attempt, did you manage to print the model?
