Pull Toy, Snail

myminifactory

I Made A 3D Printed PLA Version Of My Old Wooden Snail Pull Toy In Shop Class Many Years Ago. Seeing A Number Of Beautifully Designed Wooden Pull Toys On The Web Had Me Reminded Of The Flat, Wood, Wobbly, Poorly Painted Pull Toys I Built Back Then, Including A Snail Pull Toy That Was Particularly Memorable. This 3D Printed Version Is Clearly Better Than Anything I Could Have Made In Wood Years Ago, So I Think I'll Be Upgrading A Few More Of My Early Woodworking Projects. Video Of The Prototype Is Available Here: https://youtu.be/xz5HDgi2r7g. All Parts Are Printed With The Exception Of The Wide Rubber Bands Used For Traction And Yarn Used For Pulling. I Designed It Using Sketchup Make 2015, And Printed It In PLA On A Makerbot Replicator 2 Using Makerware 2.3.3.42 "Standard" Settings (.2mm Layer Height, 2 Shells, 10% Infill).
