The mechanism is printed assembled, and will work without further assembly right after birth from the printer.
A few tips to consider:
- After birth there might be a little powder left in some joints, or it might not go supersmooth. This will fix itself after the animal has a little bit of practice!
- Some surfaces work better than others. The legs require a little friction, and a flat surface. So for example: A rough table or floor, thin flat carpeting, or a thin rubber sheet. It will slip on a too smooth surface.
- The best way to push it is by its nameplate. Do not push down, but forward.
- The beest is light, but quite strong. It can actually be dropped without breaking. It is not a "toy" however, and not suitable for children. The 3D printer material is easy to stain so clean hands are advised.
Please note that this ring will come in a solid color/material! So please choose carefully! White plastic is good for DIY painting while steel and silver ones will shine your way to stardom :)

Phylum: Mollusca
Class: Cephalopoda
Order: Octopoda
Suborder: Incirrina
Family: Octopodidae
Subfamily: Octopodinae
Species: Octopus vulgaris, the Common Octopus.
Members of the class cephalopoda are carnivorous hunters. They have the most advanced nervous system of all invertebrate animals and are an important example of advanced cognitive evolution in animals.
O. vulgaris is the most studied of all octopus species and possesses excellent eyesight, capable of distinguishing shapes, textures, and colour. It is the only animal which has been conclusively shown to use tools, and is proficient at learning simple processes such as unscrewing a jar.
Cephalopods are able to release dark pigment into the water as an escape mechanism, which in the past has been extracted and used by humans as an ink or dye. The word sepia comes from the Latin word for cuttlefish, s?pía.

Roll a Ball on Plastic Rails Inside a 3D Cube. Reach the Exit to Solve the Maze Puzzle. Rolling Ball Maze Puzzle & Brain Game for Kids, teens & Adults.

Escher's Playground - Reminiscent of the upside-down staircase paintings by Escher, this 7x7x7 maze will soon have you forgetting which way is up and down. The dimensions of this maze are 40mm by 40mm by 40mm and the ball is 9mm in diameter.
Ethereal Maze Puzzles are mazes that you solve by rolling a ball through an innovative new three dimensional lattice structure which forms the maze paths. The goal is to roll the ball through the Labyrinth Maze from the entrance to the exit. An additional challenge is to navigate the ball from the exit back to the entrance.
Start by pushing the ball into the spring loaded entrance ( it looks
like a backwards “J”). Tip the maze in different directions to roll the
ball along the paths through the maze. Don’t worry, if you make a wrong
turn, the ball will not fall out of the maze. If the ball runs into a
dead-end you can just roll the ball back the opposite way and try
another path, that’s all part of this fun brain game. When you reach the
exit there is a spring loaded button to press to release the ball from
the maze. The exit is in a corner of the 3D maze, where you will find a
bar with the little button sticking out from the side of the maze.
Each maze game come with the ball attached by a little chain link cage for shipping. This needs to be cut off and cut open with scissors and the ball will fall out. Note that each larger size maze comes with a larger ball. The balls can quickly and easily be colored with a highlighter or marker. Let the ball dry for a minute after applying then roll between clean white paper to remove excess color so it does not rub off on the maze. Paint for plastic models can also be used. The orange, green and black balls in the pictures were colored with highlighters or markers. Coloring the ball makes it easier to track in the Labyrinth maze.
See for yourself how Ethereal
Maze Puzzles take maze puzzles to a whole new level of challenge and
fun. With their convoluted lattice structure they can also be enjoyed as
captivating and intriguing sculptural works of art.

A recreation of Dr Who's TARDIS. One of my favourite shows as a kid and still shown today, Doctor Who's TARDIS has undergone many incarnations. It seems that season 18's is perhaps the most popular and that is what I tried to remain close to when designing it. This one has no door handles on it, though, simply because I feel the printing process just wouldn't handle the thin material very well (the thickness of the handle was one tenth of a mm). But, in looking at the dozens of incarnations of the TARDIS there were some that did not have any handles, in fact.
The "Police Box" lettering is extruded on each side but I have not been able to put the sign on the phone cover door because of the size.
