About this 3D model

Create smoothly curved containers such as bowls, urns, or vases with this customizable design. Beginning with a side view, you draw [Bezier curve](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B%C3%A9zier_curve) control points in a polygon widget; the resulting curve is turned into a cross section that is spun as if on a lathe or potter's wheel to produce the final model. Here is a brief screencast demonstrating how to draw Bezier curve control points with this customizer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hVwQY6czCPw The attached screenshot overlays a frame from the screencast with additional details. --- Produces solid models intended to be printed with zero infill and zero top layers. (Alternatively, stop your printer around 90% to prevent top layers from being printed.) --- Part of my [Customizable Containers](http://www.thingiverse.com/anoved/collections/customizable-containers) series. --- (Does Thingiverse garble UTF? Let's look at the accented "e" in the word that follows to find out: *Bézier*. Not initially, but after passing through the Edit Thing page again, it appears so.)
