About this 3D model
Guru's excellent "A Gekko" model turned out to be a pretty popular print in my kids' school, and so I fixed it up a bit, simplified it, and plated it. * A little taller. * Legs are a bit thicker. * Flattened at the bottom. * Much simpler -- from about 16,400 vertices to 410 (simplest), and 1.5MB to 40K. * Defects were repaired (e.g. you can now render it with OpenSCAD) * Repair fixes some odd slicing issues (I was getting only three toes on the back left leg) The plate of eight prints with tails pointing in, which I find helpful for first layer adhesion.
