Heart Slingo (Slinky)

thingiverse

I loved watching Deven from Make Anything demonstrate how even the most basic models can be effortlessly converted into a Slinky/spring toy, which he cleverly calls "springo." His technique was too demanding for my system until I discovered Vladimir's innovative method of creating one rotation and then employing a linear pattern to craft the slingo. Huge thanks to his tutorial for substantially assisting me in this endeavor! As a Valentine's Day gift, I designed and printed this slingo in the shape of a heart. After making some adjustments to the design, I was able to print it at an incredibly fine 0.2mm layer height. To assemble the slingo, carefully separate the layers using a knife or spatula. I created this design slightly smaller than my bunny face slingo, which can be found on Thingiverse.
