#3DTakoTuesday : The Mood Octopus

Description

Meet \#3DTakoTuesday, a cute, stackable octopus with a variety of expressive eye options to fit your mood. "Tako" (たこ) is Japanese for octopus. I designed this to improve/practice my Fusion 360 skills. Feel free to drop me a tip if you like my designs or just want to support my learning. THANK YOU and enjoy! I am looking forward to seeing your makes! The main octopus parts are designed to be printed without supports and do not require a multi color/filament printer. Some of the eyes will make use of the filament change technique, where the print is paused at a certain layer height, so that the filament can be swapped before resuming. This can be done with: * PrusaSlicer using [color change](https://blog.prusaprinters.org/prusaslicer-2-release/#10) * Cura using: Extensions > Post processing > Modify G-code > Add a script > filament change * [Prusa's ColorPrint webapp](https://blog.prusaprinters.org/color-print/) ("G-code is supported from Slic3r, Cura, KISSlicer and Simplify3D.") # Accessories The customization doesn't stop at the eyes!

The clearance determines the additional space for the holes for the eyes and lips. The amount of clearance depends on your printer's calibration/accuracy (too small of a clearance value might not allow the lips/eyes to fit into the body, while too large of a clearance value will make the lips/eyes fit too loosely). ### 3dtakotuesday.bottom.mm.stl This is the bottom/underside of the octopus's tentacles. ### 3dtakotuesday.lips.mm.stl This is the octopus's lips part. The file's orientation should not require a brim, but feel free to use one if you encounter bed adhesion issues. ### 3dtakotuesday.top.mm.stl This is the top of the octopus's head.
