I had a wood version of this, but decided to design a 3D Printable version. This is a 3D printed automaton Cat and Mouse toy. The mouse will need some support but everything else should be able to be printed just as they are without supports.

PLA
215 degrees
.3 mm layers
15% infil

Takes about 8 hours to print at 40 mm/sec.
May need some slight adjusting to get everything to run smoothly. (Still working on the tolerance calibrations)
