Here are the steps to create a stunning Circular Leaf Spring: Draw a perfect cross shape on your print bed. Create 4-5 circles of equal size from a central point. Erase the bottom half of the design, getting rid of all unnecessary details. Add half-circle elements on the bottom part, carefully spacing them out so they form a spiral. Start with one, then proceed with the rest in succession. You'll achieve an eye-catching spiral pattern! For the horizontal Cross Line, make markings that will serve as a guide for drawing the second spiral, which should have an offset from the original one. The wider the offset, the thicker and more robust the part of the spring will be, giving it greater resistance and strength!
