Description
Yes, I made this specifically for the contest. The idea hit me, and last I checked, no one else had done one, so here we are.
Thanks to openscan for the dental model that formed the basis of this model.
I'd recommend PETG for the clip, but PLA seems to work ok. Mess around with the perimeters and infill to change how flexible it is. The provided GCODE is how I printed my example in PLA. Time will tell how long it lasts.
Yes, my print is a little stringy. My cooling fan is about to be replaced.
I'm still tweaking the models and will upload them shortly so you can slice them yourself if you can't use the PrusaSlicer 3mf file (which uses negative volumes to correct issues with the models).
