Description

Penguin with moveable wings and feet. Beak can be pressed. Inspired by the dancing penguin emoji from Microsoft teams. See here for more information.

  • There is space for adding two 1ct coins, so the penguin can balance on one foot. 
  • A spring with 5-6mm diameter and 2-3mm height is needed if you want to be able to press the beak. You can easily cut a spring with pliers, if it's longer than 3mm.
    Alternatively, you can print the beak_withoutSpring to get a fixed beak.
  • Warning: Tolerances are tight, so your printer needs to be tuned well.

Work in progress. I'd love to hear your feedback on the model!

Assembly instructions:

Step1: 
Push the white bottom part into black bottom part. It needs to click in 3 spots to be aligned right. Make sure the black part is the right one! It needs to have a cutout for the coins.
You will need some force, but the benefit is that it will hold together well.

Step2:
Place one coin, one foot and one arm as shown in the picture.

Step3:
Place the other coin, other foot and wing.

Step4: Push the upper white part into the upper black part. Again, you will need some force.

Step5: Put the beak and eyes where they belong.

Step6: Put the spring in the cutout of the beak or glue the beak to the white part.

Step7: To make assembly easier you can put tape on the front of the penguin to hold the eyes and the beak in place.

Last Step: Push together the two halves of the penguin. It is a tight fit but that way it should close perfectly.

Finished: If you want to, you can attach the hat now. In the future there may be a version where the hat attaches via magnets.
