So I decided to tackle a pumpkin

So I decided that I needed to design something for Halloween or Thanksgiving and a pumpkin kinda fits both. I am pretty happy with the results especial because I didn’t have to glue any of the living hinges because they are tensioned (not sure what to call it) created a little notch that they could rest in. What do you think? Had requests to create a set of pumpkins so now their are 3, 3.5", 7", 11".

Yeah that’s clever. That’s a pretty aggressive bend for a living hinge, did you break any test pieces along the way?

Broke the first one. I used the same hinge I had used on the sleigh I did. Then I redesigned and this one is not as flexible but is very durable and it prints faster too.
