Pimp the Wall-e toilet paper holder

This model has been popular for many years because it is simply nice. After moving to new flat, I was looking for something original on the bathroom mirror. I printed the original and ... His arms fell off quickly. So disapointent... My wife said she only smacked it slightly ... Yes, of course. I belive ;)

I decided to improve the structure. And so began the adventure with Fusion 360 to create an almost whole project from scratch.

Notes:

Do not rush. It is simple.

This model requires high accuracy, so leave high speed for other projects. I did not exceed 50 mm / s, and sometimes I printed even slower. The smaller the model, the lower the temperature and the speed.

Instead of describing everything, I decided to take more pics. There you have shown what, how and in what order to assemble. Some holes require calibration with a drill - this is pretty normal. You can use files and small upholstery knives.

I tried to give good tolerances but I do not guarantee matching the parts straight from the printer. It is simply impossible.

Aha, something else...

Personally, I did not stick my arms and hands to the main body. I made them pressed, so that they can easily be replaced after breaking.

I have printed parts in many colors with the 'change filament' function in Cura. Mean 'solar panel', 'front door' and 'b_w stripes'.

It's much easier than - for example - fitting a yellow star into the hole of solar panel.

Enjoy :)
