About Parametric Liner Pot Generator

The Parametric Liner Pot Generator by DanMat is one of the most used customizable models on MakerWorld, with more than 14,000 customisations and over 3,000 likes. It makes an inner liner pot for houseplants that you size to the plant and to the decorative pot it will sit in. Everything happens in MakerWorld's online customizer, so there is nothing to install.

You set the height, top opening and bottom diameter, and the script keeps the result sensible with built-in limits that stop unstable or unprintable shapes. The base prints in the centre of the plate with the walls around it, so no supports are needed, and it scales from tiny seedling pots to large, angled or very tall liners.

It suits plant owners who keep finding that ready-made pots are almost, but not quite, the right size. You need a MakerWorld account to customize and download, and the design is a practical liner rather than a decorative show pot.

What you'll need to print it

Materials and parts that give the best results with Parametric Liner Pot Generator.

PETG for functional and outdoor prints

PETG handles heat, sunlight and repeated flexing better than PLA, so Gridfinity bins in a hot garage or signs mounted outdoors keep their shape.
