Inspired by classic Marilyn Monroe blow-up photos, sexy anime model design works like bobble head with entire top moving. ABS or PLA springs always sag; using pin inside body avoids this issue. Hidden in body above center of gravity on Z-axis and perfectly at X and Y axes creates spring that never wears out. The skirt acts as counterbalance and sail catching nearby air currents creating a captivating swaying motion. Legs are mounts for balance pins providing stability for model to the left shoe locked into grate.

The upper body can work in various positions, so you may choose to leave the needle adjustable. To make the gravity spring work, position the legs precisely and align the needle vertically. Balance the upper body by adding tape underneath the skirt for it to balance or apply a small amount of super glue to the needle end letting the upper body move freely around it.
