Bongo Cat Monitor Mount, Cute Webcam Kitty Buddy

<p>I was inspired when I saw a similar design online but couldn't find an STL anywhere. I have a job interview today and wanted a way to act happily towards the camera while dealing with the anguish of making eye contact with an inanimate screen. Introducing the monitor-mounted bongo cat! His cheerful smile will wipe away any remnants of existential dread from our two-year pandemic. Place him wherever you need a laugh! :D</p><p>The model is actually quite big which works well for my ultrawide monitor, but feel free to scale it down. There are two versions - one with a separately-printable mouth+eyes (for gluing on) and one with the face included. I recommend printing the pieces slowly and with supports (touching build plate only). I uploaded my 3mf file as an example of printing orientation.&nbsp;</p><p>I printed the body with 0.2 layer height and the mouth/eyes with a .08 layer height using my 0.4mm nozzle. Model was created in Tinkercad. Body is Hatchbox White PLA, face is eSun Black PLA+.</p><p>The mouth has tight tolerances so if you print the pieces separately like me, you may need to heat up the mouth piece to get it to fit into the body. I used a heat gun, but a lighter would probably work too. Stuck on the monitor with some bits of double-sided tape.</p>
