Rubber Band Toy Tractor

This is the 3D-printed version of a classic toy we used to make with everyday items as kids, now brought back to life with advanced technology. A great way to share a fun experience with your children or take a nostalgic trip down memory lane :)\nINSTRUCTIONS:\nInsert the rubber band into the spool hole and secure it with the clip when it comes out on the other end to prevent rotation. Pass the loose end of the rubber band through the wax/soap washer and insert the printed stick or match.\nTwist the rubber band by rotating the long end of the match with your finger. Place the toy on a flat surface. The match will rotate until it touches the surface, then the toy will slowly move forward. You can create small obstacles for the toy to overcome. From time to time, you'll need to replace the washer as it wears out or breaks due to excessive twisting of the rubber band.\nHow I Brought This Classic Toy Back to Life
