Remix of basic geometric polypanels by Devin Montes into customizable succulent planters!  Pick your planter panel, pick your shape panels, and let your creativity run free through the endless design possibilities! The pentagon planter panel has two depths, 30 mm and 20 mm, to accommodate larger or smaller plants, respectively. The square and rhombus planter panels are slightly smaller than the pentagon and the triangle is the smallest (for mini succulents). Further improvement of this concept will include the design of planter panels using other polypanel shapes and sizes. Additionally, planter panels can easily be combined with other specialty panels such as magnet or panels with loops to post on metal surfaces and hang around the garden outside. The sky is the limit! These panels were printed on my Creality CR-10S using Hatchbox wood PLA. 100% infill works best. No supports were used. After printing, the dark-colored panels were lightly sanded and stained using Varathane Premium Fast Dry Wood Stain (Dark Walnut). The planter panel was coated twice with Rust-oleum Crystal Clear Enamel and allowed to air dry for 3 days. This prevents degradation of the plastic exposed to dirt and water over time. Thank you to Devin and MyMiniFactory for providing hours of fun polypanel printing and this design contest!
