As the original didn't leave instructions, I decided it would be fun to try and figure out how it worked and ended up editing almost all the different elements and adding some more to it as well so it turned into a remix.

What you need:
- Cyanoacrylate Glue
- Screwdriver
- 2 x SG90 Servos
- 1 x HC-SR04
- 1 x Arduino Uno
- 1 x Breadboard/Mini-Breadboard
- Many Dupont Wires (Like these:- https://www.amazon.co.uk/Elegoo-120pcs-Multicolored-Breadboard-arduino-colorful/dp/B01EV70C78/)

Method:

If you have Blender, open this file to get an idea of what it'll turn out like when it's built.
(Only for the build reference)
- full_model.blend

Print:
- 1 x Iris_holder.stl
- 9 x Iris_leaf_pin.stl
- 9 x Iris_leaf.stl

Each leaf has been marked with a little circle indent, this marks where to glue the leaf pin, I glued it on as it makes the leaves easier to print without supports, as supports would leave marks that would make the surface rougher so it wouldn't spin as ea
