This toy was originally drawn to be printed on a Stratasys machine. It had a dual extrusion head and always printed a raft and support structure with soluble material. I had never used anything else and ease of printing wasn't much of a concern. It had some virtues. It was very accurate, probably because of the heated chamber. And it was easy to use. There was only one setting - hollow fill or solid. On the down side it weighted 300 lbs and could only use ABS that was $250 a roll. Once I was worried I had damaged the nozzle. But not to worry, the factory said I could replace it for $2000.

I mention this because these days I would draw it with the need for support material in mind and would provide a little more tolerance for things that fit together. Everything does fit together, but unless your machine works a lot better than mine you will do a little sanding and fitting before gluing pieces together. It could have been drawn with fewer parts but I like having the parts be differen
