<p>I keep hearing about vase mode, but I have some problem figuring out how to set it up in my slicer; I use Cura slicer.</p>
<p>So, I'd like to get some settings to do it in Ultimaker Cura, using PLA if the material is important, plus any advice on how to properly do it and ensure that the print retains it's shape on print.</p>
