An update to my previous Big Flaky Rocket model.
I have reworked the snap-fit system to make it better, and more tolerant to multiple assembly / disassembly cycles, making it more usable as a toy. I also further decomposed the bottom part by splitting the legs and feet, allowing a larger printing scale (I tested up to a 80cm version, but 120cm would be doable with a standard-sized printer).
The rocket shape is still the one published by [Pierre Muth][1], based on previous work by Gregory Vienot. Only the assembly system is mine.
