Yunis The Simple Jointed Snake

thingiverse

Designed Yunis for the students to better understand the basic concept of using multiple printed parts and joining them together easily using 1.75mm filament to create a moving thing. Hint: Younger children seem to enjoy this more than adolescent. ;) Instructions I used my default simple print profile of 15% infill with 2 perimeters and 0.3mm layer height. I think 3 perimeters might bridge the ceiling better. Overall Yunis passed the "3D Print Drop Test" and has been solid. Depending on your flowrate, the filament might slide right in or be a little tight. One of the snakes I had to glue the filament and the other was tight enough I used pliers to assemble. The snake I had to use glue on was abusively handled by the kids and didn't fall apart. My snake with no glue used has yet to be handled by kids, so no durability report there.
