Click SHOW MORE to learn my story! It's the year 30XX and humanity has populated the far reaches of the universe. In order for old Saint Nick to have any chance of making enough toys for all the good girls and boys spread among the stars he needed help. So after a long deliberation, Santa's faithful elves created the Little Helper Robot, capable of tirelessly making, sorting, and wrapping enough gifts for everyone! ---------------------------------- Assembly Instructions: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0KzN-MDQvHM Created for the 2017 #TinkerChristmas competition, this adorable 100% TinkerCAD design comes in six easy-to-print pieces that can be made in around 4 hours on an average printer. Just insert the pegs and adjust the pose as you like! The body can be rotated, showing either message on the front. Lastly the set contains a plain head with an optional Santa hat that can be attached with glue or double-sided tape to the head. Merry Christmas and happy printing! ---------------------------------- Printed in PLA on a relatively stock Anet A8 in about 4 hours. Part orientation was chosen for a desired "grain" rather than ease of printing alone. Hence why the Santa hat is separate, since having it be part of the head would make the circular grain look odd due to its pivot. If anyone wants a combined hat+head stl so they don't need glue/tape, let me know and I'll add it to the project. Assembly should be press-fit with some resistance so that the parts don't fall out. Just rotate the part till its peg is fully seated. All parts should remain posable even after being assembled.   This object was made in Tinkercad.
