Flexi Dog Fidget Dachshund Monitor Buddy

A cute Flexi Dog Fidget inspired by a dachshund puppy, designed as a small decorative and semi-mobile 3D printable model.

The body is divided into segments to allow slight flexible movement while keeping its long, low and relaxed dachshund shape. This makes the model more playful than a static figurine, while still being simple and clean to print.

It can also be used as a monitor buddy.
 

The model is designed to be printed as a single piece, so no assembly is required. 

The bottom is almost completely flat, which makes the print stable and easy to place on the build plate. 

Only a few small supports are needed in the front area, mainly under the muzzle and near the ears, but nothing excessive.

I recommend printing it with standard PLA. It prints well with a 0.20 mm layer height, but it can also be printed at around 0.26 mm for a faster result while still keeping good detail.
For a smoother finish on the head and body, you can use Adaptive Layer Height / Variable Layer Height in Bambu Studio, especially on the rounded areas.

Suggested print settings:

• Material: PLA
• Layer height: 0.20 mm or around 0.26 mm
• Supports: only a few small supports under the muzzle and near the ears
• Infill: Gyroid or simple Grid
• Infill percentage: 15% used for extra safety, but 7–10% should still be enough for good strength
• No assembly required
• Scalable up or down depending on your needs
