Foldable Origami Boat

🔷 Foldable Origami Boat (Flexible Print Experiment) A foldable origami-style boat designed specifically for 3D printing. This is an experimental model — but a surprisingly successful one. 🧪 About This Model This design explores how far we can push 3D printing into flexible, foldable structures. Fully printable flat Folds into a classic origami boat Designed to test material flexibility and layer behavior 👉 It started as an experiment — and turned out better than expected. 🧵 Material Matters (Important!) This model depends heavily on material flexibility: ✅ TPU — best choice (highly recommended) Smooth folding High durability Won’t crack at hinges ✅ PETG — works well Slightly stiffer, but still foldable Good balance between strength and flexibility ❌ PLA — not recommended Too brittle Will likely crack or break during folding ⚙️ Printing Tips Layer height: 0.2 mm Walls: 2–3 Infill: 0–10% (mostly not needed) Print slow for better layer bonding Make sure bed adhesion is good (large fla
