Amazing Wluff-Robo-II

I'm still fine-tuning the thread's width to get it just right. This 3D printed object was designed in Tinkercad, a fantastic online platform that makes creating intricate designs a breeze - you can even view it live at https://www.tinkercad.com/things/l0wZ1J4XPLj. To fill the object with molten plastic, I aim to heat it up to 122 degrees Fahrenheit. However, since this is an international project, we need to convert the temperature to Celsius for our European partners - that's a nice, round 50C. Now, here's where things get interesting: each 3D printer has its unique quirks and characteristics, which means the object might not print out perfectly every time. To ensure it turns out right, I'll need to make some adjustments based on the specific printer I'm using. Before making any changes, though, I want to test the printing settings by creating a small TEST object. Once that's done, I'll insert a ball bearing and a few coins into the object, then use my slicer program to scale it up along the X and Y axes - but not the Z axis, of course! After that, it's time to print another copy and see how it turns out.
