Description

This uses two mechanical keyboard switches to make a moving shulker fidget toy. The box in the picture is fully open, and upon pressing the top, it closes fully and bounces back. Very fun to play with and a fun desk ornament or fidget toy.

Parts:

- 2 mechanical keyboard switches of your choosing. I designed it around a cherry switch, which means most mechanical switches will fit. The clickier the better in my opinion

Printing :

- Print in the orientation provided. Openings on all parts facing up. You will need supports for printing the head

- A 0.4 mm nozzle or smaller is recommended to get the switch geometry correct, although I have successfully printed it with a 0.6mm nozzle

- Making the top lighter by using less infill and fewer walls makes the top rebound faster

- Feel free to print in multicolor to get the colors correct. I recommend just printing it in the base tan color for the head and painting the eyes on

Assembly:

- Firmly press your keyboard switches into the head. One on each side. Make sure they are oriented correctly. The mounts are rectangular and so is the button on the switch

- Firmly press the head into the keyboard switch in the base, then firmly press the top onto the keyboard switch in the head

- Click it!
