VASE 3D Open the studio

For 3D printing

Vessels that reach your slicer clean.

Shape a form by feel in the browser, then send a clean model to your slicer. Every shape stays watertight by construction, so there is nothing to repair before you print.

Watertight by construction

You know the loop. Model a vase, export it, then watch the slicer flag holes, flipped normals and non-manifold edges. VASE 3D builds the form as one solid of revolution, watertight by construction. The walls close, the windings stay consistent, and what you see on screen is exactly the geometry that lands in the slicer. No netfabb pass, no manual hole-filling, no failed first layer because the mesh was open.

The usual export

  • Open edges and holes to patch
  • Flipped normals and non-manifold geometry
  • A repair tool between you and the print
  • First layer fails, you guess why

From VASE 3D

  • Watertight by construction, every time
  • Consistent windings, positive volume
  • Straight from design to slicer
  • A readout that confirms it before you export

Vase mode or solid, your call

Print it spiralized in vase mode for a single continuous wall and a smooth spiral surface, or print it solid with your own wall and infill settings. The model exports the same clean geometry either way, so you set the nozzle, layer height and walls in the slicer you already trust and the shape just works. New to the idea? Start with the free vase generator and print your first one today.

Watertight readout

A live check stays on while you work, so you know the form is closed and consistent before you ever hit export.

Tuned for vase mode

Continuous silhouettes that spiralize cleanly, with no overhang traps that fight a single outer wall.

Real dimensions

Design at fired-clay scale with the measurements shown, so the part comes off the bed the size you meant.

STL, OBJ or GLB

Export the format your slicer or pipeline expects, clean and ready to load with no conversion dance.

Pattern it, keep it watertight

Add twists, flutes, ribs, scales and relief from a large library of patterns, and stack them in a visual order. Crank the depth as far as you like. The surface still resolves to a single closed manifold, so a heavily textured pot stays just as printable as a plain one.

Straight to the slicer

One export, three formats, all watertight by construction.

VASE 3D outputs the master vessel for printing. It does not generate mold files. Molds are handled by Moldy, a separate engine coming later, and the model carries a small sidecar so it is ready when that lands.
