Mantis - 3D puzzle

thingiverse

Thanks to dino-girl for uploading the DXF file fo this design. I imported the DXF into Solidworks 2010, cleaned it up as the imports aren't always 100%, and saved each of the body parts as a seperate file as the DXF file had it all in one. I then checked for thickness of the parts by looking at the width of the connecting slots and modified my files accordingly. Instructions After printing you'll probably have to do some cleanup of the connecting slots so the parts go together tightly but with ease. There are 25 parts files to this Mantis. Some seem like duplicate parts but are in fact slightly different. I printed them all WITHOUT support purely to get the parts smooth both sides and have much less cleaning work to do.
