Octane

Octane (C₈H₁₈) is a straight-chain alkane with eight carbon atoms. It is a key component of gasoline, and its octane rating measures fuel's resistance to knocking during combustion. Higher octane numbers indicate better performance.

I oriented the model for optimal strength/waste/time compromise, but if you decide to reorient it, try to avoid placing critical bonds along the Z-axis, as they will be easy to break.For support settings, see Figure 1. Supports are removable without too much worry of damaging model if you are careful with scalpel and do of paper-sanding afterwards.You can use PETG as support material (don't
