Hairy Head

Inspired by the majestic lion: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2007221 After printing, I employed an x-acto knife to carefully cut along the inner edge of the cylinder, resulting in most strands emerging straight out the head as shown. The cylinder was then discarded. To solidify the hair into place, I directed a heat gun at the head for approximately 3 minutes while rotating it frequently. To customize this design, download the hair.scad file and the HeadStand.stl from https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:758647 to the same directory as hair.scad. Then open hair.scad in OpenSCAD (http://www.openscad.org). The hair_length variable can be utilized to regulate the radius of the cylinder, subsequently influencing the length of the hair. The images depicted were captured with hair_length = 5.5, and the head was scaled 3 times from its original size.
