The String just kept ripping off. If you get it to work, please post a make!
I made a tiny wind-up car.
What you need:
- Filament (should be obvious)
- a piece of thin nylon string (about 30cm long)
- a piece of rubber band (30mm x 5mm x 2mm)

- superglue (the best glue in exsistance)
- sandpaper (20 grit is fine)
- baking soda (to make the superglue harden faster)
What to print:
- axle.3mf (while you only need two you want to print at least four as these break if you just look at them the wrong way)
- wheel.3mf (four are needed, of course)
- rubber_band_holder.3mf (couldn't think of anything to write here)
- rubber_band_protector.3mf (print as detailed as possible)
How to build:
- Get the rubber band holder and feed the piece rubber ban through like shown in the picture
- secure the rubber band using superglue
- cut off the excess
- sand it down until it's just under 9mm high
- glue the nylon string in the notch of the rubber band protector with superglue
- sprinkle some baking soda over it
- put the rubber band protector under the rubber band
- make a few knots
- import the file buggy.3mf into your slicer and add a filament change at the last layer the hole is still open (You can find good tutorials for cura and prusaslicer online)
- start the print
- when the printer stops, feed the string through the small hole, put superglue on the four legs of the rubber band holder and drop it in
- continue the print
- put the wheels on the axles (you might have to sand the axles down a little)
- wait for the print to finish
- trim the string a little
- glue the string to the side of the notch of the axle
- press both axles into place
How to use:
- wind up the string
- put it on the ground
- look at it driving away from you
Sorry for my bad english. I'm still learning.
