Description
It's a pocket sized Little Tikes Turtle Sandbox featuring a clicky chonky shell! Just add an mx style keyboard switch to complete your clicker!
There are two versions to print; an AMS version which prints the eyes on the body, and a Parts version which prints the eyes separately to glue in place later. Both print options include the shell as a separate plate so that you can print it in an alternate color like in my pictures. If you prefer a turtle with a matching body and shell color you can move the shell to the build plate with the body.
I've used three different types of switches with success! See the picture below.
The shell is pre-supported with a built-in support that needs to be removed post printing. I recommend inserting the keyboard switch into the turtle body first, and then press the shell onto the switch stem. You can use the lid protrusions to help with the alignment. See the picture below.
Printed with 0.2mm layers, 2 walls, 15% gyroid infill, Arachne wall generator, disabled one wall on top surfaces, no supports, the part called “shell support” requires 0% infill
