Description

I've tested it in both PETG and Woodfill PLA, it's best to start by printing 1 leg section and 1 pin to test the fit. Pins should slide in easily and allow the leg piece to spin freely. If it is not working, try adjusting the extrusion multiplier down (for me: 1 works well for PETG, PLA and TPU but I had to print woodfill at 0.9)

For maximum durability, I recommend printing the pins, antenna and axles in a TPU with a 95a Shore hardness, which is rigid enough that it will not interfere with walking but will also be impossible to snap.

A small dab of CA glue is recommended to hold the pins in the rear wheels, the wheels on axles, the ForeLeg pins to the body and the pin joining the HindLeg to the Foreleg.

Parts Print List:

1 x Body

2 x Antenna

2 x Axle

2 x BackWheel

2 x FrontWheel

2 x HindLeg

2 x ForeLeg

6 x Pin
