KUZE Potforge · 3D-printable planter designer Drag a slider.
Print the pot.
KUZE Potforge is a planter designer that runs in your browser. Shape the wall, wrap it in any of 100+ surface patterns or one made from your own photo, cut the rim and add drainage. Then download an STL and send it to your 3D printer.
- 100+ surface patterns
- Free to design
- Nothing to install
- Ready-to-print pots need no account
Profile drag
Hard to drag on a phone? It's easier on a desktop.
Pattern 8 of 100+
Colour
Drag the profile points to reshape the pot. Patterns use the editor's own maths; open Potforge for all 100+ in full 3D.
Made with Potforge
Printed, not rendered.
Every pot here was designed in Potforge and printed from the STL it exports. No CAD in between.
Ready to print
Start from a finished pot.
Potforge keeps a shelf of finished pots, every one designed in it. Download one as it is, with no account, or open it and make it yours.
Design with AI
Describe it. Your AI assistant shapes it.
Tell ChatGPT, Claude or another AI assistant what pot you want. It reads Potforge's design guide and answers with a link that opens your pot in the editor, ready to adjust and download.
Opens the assistant in a new tab with your words. Using another assistant? Copy the request and paste it in.
How it works
From slider to shelf.
-
Step 1
Pick a starting shape
Open a ready-to-print pot, or begin from the shape the editor opens with.
-
Step 2
Drag it into shape
Height, width, sides, twist, ribs and waves. Choose a surface pattern and a rim cut, then set drainage and legs. The 3D preview follows every slider.
-
Step 3
Download the STL and print
Open it in Bambu Studio, OrcaSlicer, PrusaSlicer or Cura. Your own designs are saved to My designs first, which is free for three.
In the editor
More than a few sliders.
- Surface patterns
- 100+
- Rim cuts
- 26
- Colour previews
- 14
Drainage built in
Centre holes or a honeycomb grate, with a drainage plate that is either part of the pot or printed separately.
Legs or a flat base
Stand the pot on legs with a recessed underside, or give it a solid, flat bottom that prints without supports.
See it in colour
Preview terracotta, bronze, pistachio, cream glaze and ten more finishes before you pick a filament.
You choose the detail
Set the mesh quality before you download, from light files for quick prints to fine detail for textured walls.
A shape from your photo
Photograph a pot you like from the side and frame it: Potforge gives yours its outline and proportions, and its ribs and rings. No account needed, and the photo stays in your browser.
Textures from your photos
Photograph a basket weave, a carving or a tiled wall, frame the pattern, and Potforge turns it into relief round the pot. The photo stays in your browser.
My textures, in every tool
Keep the textures you make in My textures and use them again on any pot, or on a lamp in Lampforge. Free keeps 3, Commercial up to 100.

Questions
Before you open it.
Do I need an account?
Not to design, and not to download a ready-to-print pot. You need one to make a texture from your own photo, and to download a design you made or changed, which is saved to My designs first. That needs only a Google account or an email address: sign in with Google, or with a link we email you. No password.
Is Potforge free?
Yes. Designing is free and there is nothing to install. Ready-to-print pots download without an account, and the Free plan keeps three of your own designs for any use but selling. Commercial adds unlimited designs and the right to sell prints.
Do I need CAD or 3D-modelling skills?
No. You shape the pot with sliders, pattern buttons and a profile you drag. Potforge builds the 3D model and the printable STL for you.
What file do I get?
An STL, the standard file for 3D printing. Open it in your slicer, choose your filament and print.
Which printers does it work with?
Any FDM printer whose slicer opens STL files, which covers Bambu Lab, Prusa, Creality, Elegoo and the rest. The print settings guide has the slicer settings to start from.
Can I add drainage holes?
Yes. Choose centre holes or a honeycomb grate in the base, and print the drainage plate as part of the pot or as a separate piece. The drainage guide covers every setting.
Can I make a texture from my own photo?
Yes, with a free KUZE account. In Surface layers, choose “+ From photo”, pick a JPG, PNG or WebP and drag a box over the pattern. Potforge turns its light and dark into relief, finds the repeat so no seam shows, and wraps it round the pot. The photo is processed in your browser; only the texture is kept. Each one is kept in My textures (3 on the Free plan, up to 100 on Commercial; when it is full, delete one or upgrade), and a design can use as many as you like. The photo texture guide goes step by step.
Can Potforge copy the shape of a pot in a photo?
Yes, and it needs no account. In Shape, choose “Shape from a photo”, pick a JPG, PNG or WebP of the pot taken from the side, and drag a box round the pot, leaving out the plant. Potforge traces the outline, keeps your pot's width and takes the height from the photo's proportions, or from the real height if you type it. It also counts vertical ribs and finds rings round the pot, and adds them if you like. Drag the dashed lines to the rim and the base if they need it. The photo is processed in your browser and never uploaded or kept. Like any pot you change, it is saved to My designs before its STL downloads. The shape from a photo guide goes step by step.
Can an AI assistant design a pot for me?
Yes. Tell ChatGPT, Claude or another AI assistant that can read web pages what pot you want, and ask it to read potforge.kuzecreation.com/design-link.txt first (the Design with AI box on this page writes that request for you). It answers with a link that opens its pot in Potforge, where you change anything you like, save it to My designs and download the STL.
Can I sell the pots I print?
Yes, on the Commercial plan, paid monthly or yearly. One subscription covers every KUZE tool, Lampforge included. The Free plan covers everything else, gifts included. Nobody may resell the STL files themselves.
What happens to my designs if I cancel?
Nothing is deleted. You go back to the Free plan, every design stays in My designs, and your earliest three stay downloadable.
Who makes Potforge?
KUZE, a small planter studio in Perak, Malaysia. The pots on our MakerWorld profile were designed with it.
