Description
This is made to help a person with PTSD to have something to hold and focus on when anxiety hits.
I first made the flowering seed of life or bud of life with extruding it, btw, don't mind if the model is a bit.. brutal. I'm trying to learn Freecad and we're not buddies yet. The one with a tassel in the pics is actually the square one that I filed and polished with flame before I thought I could just make them round in the first place.
Then I got carried away.
I made these with some general transparent PLA (the spool doesn't have any brand on it) because I like the look, it looks a bit like those pretty selenite thingies. Tassels in the pics are made with sewing thread around credit card (just 45 rounds of each color side by side around the credit card, longer way, cut one end, make spinned twine with same yarns and assemble) I printed it with enough perimeters to be only perimeters to make it as selenite-like as I could but if you don't use transparent filament, it doesn't matter. 100% infill, you don't want it to let down a person who is already in bad place. It took just few meters of filament, oh, and I used MK3 with 0.8mm nozzle, so these are fast to print that way, just around hour.
EDIT: I made better cookie stamp and even shared my recipe! Start here, there's a link to Instructables for more info! https://www.printables.com/model/1025841-cookie-press-system-with-recipe-link-to-instructab
There's a bonus print, a really bad cookie cutter (outer ring is unattached because I didn't want it attached) so you can be extra nice and make cookies for the anxious person who needs the disc! It's bad, it's really bad, but I'm kind of working a better version of it..
