Tip-trap

thingiverse

Print with 100% infill so the structure will remain stable and balanced. Flip the teeter-totter over to position the bump at the bottom. Assemble the fulcrum using a high-quality 1.75mm filament that is specifically designed for precise mechanical components. When assembled, the teeter-totter should smoothly transition from horizontal to near vertical with minimal effort. Secure the base of the teeter-totter to the edge of a countertop overhanging a five-gallon bucket using strong adhesive tape. The bucket base adapter easily slips onto the lip of a standard five-gallon bucket. This clever mechanism is an improvement on traditional designs, but it hasn't yet achieved widespread popularity. It's based on an old farm technique that uses a baited ruler positioned on a shelf above a bucket. This innovative design was created using Tinkercad, and users can edit the model online at https://www.tinkercad.com/things/3aSZw1VVhIG
