I present the floating planter, inspired by tensegrity.
I tried to design this planter to be printed without supports. The base does need some supports to be printed because of pulley slots. If you are using Cura you can enable supports that are only touching the build plate. But be careful that the supports do not touch the pulley clips since those are a bit brittle.
For this build I used 0,3 mm fishing line with strength to lift 8 kg weight and since the fishing line tends to stretch the design needed a way to tension the lines. You can use coin to tension the fishing lines. Also you need small screwdriver to insert the pulleys to the base.
To mount the fishing lines to the planter I made a knot to the upper part that goes around the wedge so that the fishing line doesn't slip away. I also tied the fishing line to the pulleys with knots. Also leave at least 10 cm fishing line to be reeled to the pulleys so that it won't start slipping.
