UMKC BSME Roo

While getting close to graduation, some of my fellow seniors asked if I could model a little desktop trinket to use up our 3D printing material quota and give us something to remember our time in engineering school. I used Kangaroo by AHA as the kangaroo is the mascot for UMKC and knew I was not going to make one from scratch in SW. I then took an adjusabe wrench from Thingiverse (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:145267) and modified it a bit and placed them on a gear I made. A test print was done and my clearances were not right to make the wrench operate. I made some modifications and got the jaw to be loose but the screw still does not turn. I am not sure if I will continue to test this as I no longer have access to the Dimension 1200 for free. I did an acetone polish on mine and it turned out nice. it will hold a pen or small engineers scale and looks great on my desk.
