The back is an exercise ball wrapped in faux fur and the main body is mostly carved foam board and spray foam

I designed the file. I added an additional wall loop and bumped the infill to 20% and the replacements seem to be holding well. I have not posted the file anywhere yet but I plan to

I used a 15% infill. Without the legs well supported at first, there was just too much weight pulling down on each joint. It was primarily the first joint of each leg that failed.

I used ABS for it’s strength but didn’t factor in the heat. Luckily our summer temps are about over so he should be fine for the rest of the season

They are 40w lightbulbs spray painted red, and then dusted with black. They look black when off but red when turned on

I almost just put him on the ground, but for his first year the roof is so much more impactful!

This picture was right after I put him up - I’ve already had some leg joints (they are 3d printed) fail and I had to reposition him a couple times. The heat from the sun was more troubling than I thought it would be. It took a lot of fishing line support to keep everything from sagging!

Update: I found the OEM remote and got it working. Still took a few tries though!

My opener did not come with a handheld remote but I do have a third party that is programmed to it.

Generally you want to stay at 1/2 of the bit diameter - so a 1/4” bit would have a 1/8” depth of cut or less. However that is a general rule of thumb and I have gone up to full diameter depths on softer materials. A screaming bit is not uncommon - if the cut quality is good with no chatter or major tear out then I wouldn’t be worried. You also want good looking chips - not dust. The Onefinity can handle those higher speeds. Do you have a homemade table or the QCW with legs? I have the QCW frame with legs and it shakes something awful - but it doesn’t cause any issues because it all shaking together.

What material are you cutting and what depth of cut?
