Would love to see some of your prints on here! When I was younger my dad and I built a 3D printer, and I loved it. Since then I haven't had the funds/time/space to get back into it but as that was like 12 years ago, I know 3D printing has gotten much higher tech.

found a 90 year old design for a cactus watering can from a local designer and had to print it for myself.. tried out multiple sizes and colours

Can you share the STL? I would be interested in this.

Do you have any problems with water leaking? People always warn about prints not being water tight, but I don't know if that's old advice or not.
