Print Thingy.

A 180 mm Thingy for a desk or a shelf, in one colour, standing on his own base.

He keeps the pose of the original drawing, the librarian coat and his first face, raised from the screen. The 3MF opens in Bambu Studio and most other slicers; the STL is for the rest.

Any printer with a 0.4 mm nozzle and room for 120 × 62 × 180 mm will do.

What’s in the shape

  • One solid with no hollows: the coat and sleeves are filled down to the body beneath.
  • The face strokes stand about 0.9 mm proud of the screen, and the THINGY lettering 0.5 mm proud of the badge.
  • The antenna is a little thicker than on screen, so it survives a desk.
  • An oval base, 89 × 55 mm, keeps him standing.

This is the first version of the file, and he has not been printed yet. Expect to check the supports under the coat hem and the head.

Yours to print.
