A fun interactive twist on my articulated octopus model! Simply flip the spiral rod, and the cute octopus smoothly spins down to the bottom. It’s an incredibly satisfying fidget toy and desk display piece.

Features:

• Smooth Spinning Action: Designed specifically to slide and spin freely along the custom spiral screw.

• Articulated Tentacles: Features flexible, print-in-place legs that wiggle as the octopus spins.

• 100% Support-Free: Easy to print without any supports required.

• No Assembly Required: Print the rod, print the octopus, and put them together!

Recommended Print Settings:

• Layer Height: 0.2 mm (or 0.16 mm for even smoother motion)

• Wall Loops: 2–3 walls

• Infill: 10% Grid / Gyroid

• Supports: NONE needed

• Brim: Recommended for the spiral rod if you experience bed adhesion issues.

Tip: For the smoothest spin, ensure your printer is well-calibrated and there are no stray seams inside the internal hole of the octopus.
