  You can install the SmartAvionics fork of Cura. It's based on the 4.x versions so no variable line width. I use it for spiralize and for some models that need horizontal hole expansion but that have cross holes which are a problem for UM Cura.

• How to achieve this kind of texture?

  Hi, I work on a Cura variant that can provide an "exact" seam (among many other useful features). If you want to give it a go, take a look at https://github.com/smartavionics/Cura/releases. To get the exact seam, you need to specify the z-seam alignment as User Specified and the Seam Corner Preference to be None. You can install my Cura alongside the UM releases, it won't affect them.

• Which version of Cura do you use?

• [Cura 5.1.0] Can't get a proper seam line with a cylindrical object

• Cura uses Top/Bottom lines instead of inner walls

  The other option would be to try a different build of Cura. SmartAvionics' builds handle that gap fill far better than the mainstream builds and are still based on Cura 4.

• You can do some really cool things with slicer settings…

  I downloaded the smartavionics fork of Cura to get the Honeycomb infill pattern, set infill to 25%, and then added OP's bowl stl into Cura twice. The second one I scaled to 95% x/y (100% z), centered, set to "Modify settings for overlaps" -> Cutting mesh, and customized "Wall Line Count: 0, Top Layers: 0, Bottom Layers: 0, Connect Infill Lines: false".

• Why Can't Normal Cura Get The Z Seam Right? (Happens in Every Normal Cura Version)

• Is it possible to get a honeycomb infill pattern?

  It is not implemented in Ultimaker Cura, but there is a fork that reportedly has it: https://github.com/smartavionics/Cura/releases/tag/20201121
