Teddy Bear from Capsule

cults3d

This is a reworking of the original Teddy Bear Capsule (Screw-On Lid) design. My daughter wanted a small bear to be printed on our Fabrikator Mini, and she chose this one from several Thingiverse options available. She preferred it whole rather than as a capsule. I used Simplify3D to break down the connected surfaces into separate STL files, then moved the pieces around using Tinkercad to rebuild the bear. Note that the eyes and tail may be slightly off in position, and I trimmed off the bottom by a few millimeters to make it more even and flat for a clean print start. I set this up to print with "Merge all outlines into a single solid model" within Simplify3D, keeping the internal hole and threads from the original capsule. We printed the bear at 41% to get the small size she was interested in. The original post stated that supports were not needed, but we found with the Fabrikator Mini there was enough sagging, so we decided to add supports. Update: The Fabrikator Mini broke down. We now print these on a Monoprice Select Mini. Also see my Teddy Bear for Magnet remix of this bear design.
