About this generator
Your Ideal Planter by 21CNCStudio is a MakerWorld customizer that generates a plant pot at exactly the size you type in. The author's point is that scaling an STL makes walls too thin or too thick; here the wall thickness stays sensible at any size, and a drainage system is built in to help avoid waterlogged roots. It also makes a matching saucer with raised standoffs, and optional vertical ribs.
You set the dimensions in MakerWorld's online customizer and download a print-ready file, with no CAD or slicer tricks needed. The model has been customized more than 6,000 times and has over 1,100 likes. The creator labels it experimental, since endless size combinations can occasionally produce odd geometry, and asks users to report problems.
It is a practical pick for anyone filling a windowsill or shelf with pots of specific sizes and who cares about plant health as much as looks. You need a MakerWorld account to use the customizer.
