Mini Collapsible Basket

This might just be the most adorable thing I’ve ever printed! I was curious to see if this little cutie would fit in my Monoprice Mini, so I decided to scale it down to 4” or 101mm high. To my delight, it worked beautifully! However, I discovered that the basket was a tad too tight, so I created this scaled-down version with improved clearances. I made sure to open up the clearances before scaling down the design, making it easier to print. Since this mini basket is smaller in total, I did reduce the size of the clearances compared to the original. Unfortunately, opening them up like the original didn't quite work as well since everything is so much smaller. As a result, this version might be slightly more challenging to print than the original. To compensate, I added an extra leaf to the basket due to the increased clearances.
