Hi! I am somewhat new here, only a couple months. One of the first models I downloaded and printed was a spiral bowl. I love how it turned out, and just went back to print it again, but the model is gone.
I found a few similar ones but they are all less detailed; this one has 25 ridges.
Anyone happens to know where to find this again? I don’t know how to make one from scratch.
*Edit: I think it may have been called “cute little plant bowl by Skrima” - at least that is the one model from my browsing history that is now gone.
Made example for you see what can be done. Not Printed. But you can customize to your liking
let me know when youve seen so i can delete.

you just made that??? I am impressed. I need to learn how to do that.
I tried some youtube lessons for Fusion 360 but it is way too complicated. I can play with Tinkercad but that can’t do anything this sophisticated.

Don’t print it. Overhang bit to much. I can print copy later. and show you. but, look at first link… its super easy to use.

Just did. It is very cool! And easy - thanks for sharing.
There as still a couple things that model I downloaded had that I am not sure this can do (not a huge deal, but an observation):
- it seems like the waves in the model I shared a picture of were sitting on top of the vase (ie there is a flat space on the vase between the ridges)
- the waves narrow down towards the top, so that the opening of the bowl is just a round circle, not a wavy one. That is kind of neat.
Googled, your bowl. Try messaging Skrima | Published - MakerWorld to see if they can reupload it.

Take a look inside your printer’s SD card, it might be cached there, AFAIK, the card will cache anything you print until it fills up, and you need to print a lot of stuff to fill it up.
EDIT: Just checked mine, I have 22 cached models starting from a month ago, this is checking through Bambu Studio, I’m not sure if there’s anything else inside the card.
EDIT2: Also check your download folder, I have a bunch of 3mf files lying inside my downloads from way back when.
Its just using Make my vase. Sign In - Bambu lab
Bingo! I found it on the SD card.
(it never ended up on my download folder, i just opened directly in Bambu Studio - that I remembered to check earlier).
Thanks for the suggestion!

Follow-up question:
on the printer SD card cache, there are 3 files: 3mf, gcode, and bbl. I can open either the 3mf or the gcode, but both open in “preview” mode only, and cannot be edited.
Is there a way to be able to edit them?
Maybe plugging the card directly to the PC and downloading the file.
Yes that is what i did. It says it doesn’t include any geometry data.
Anyway, this is way further along than I was before, so this is good. Thanks!
Weird, try opening the 3mf file with 7zip, winrar or somesuch app, it should be a folder structure and it may have the geometry there
To my knowledge, .gcode and a .3mf (from the SD cache) files will only allow you to preview/reprint. You will not be able to change any settings in Bambu Studio.
Just a wild guess, but maybe Orca Slicer has a workaround for this.
EDIT: I found this https://all3dp.com/2/g-code-to-stl-how-to-convert-g-code-back-to-stl/ I don’t think it will have the quality of the original file, but I guess it’s worth a shot.
