Description
Create your own traditional Japanese Uchiwa fan with this 3D-optimized design! The Uchiwa is a rigid, flat fan, an icon of Japanese culture, perfect for keeping cool or as a unique decorative piece.
This design lets you print a robust and lightweight structure, perfect for those moments you need a cool breeze. What's more, it includes two distinct variations for the fan's structure:
For both versions, the provided .gcode files contain manual filament change pauses, allowing you to print the structure with multiple colors and highlight its details. It's a fun, functional project that blends modern technology with rich Japanese tradition!
