Getting ready for build season and playing with the Prusa, anyone have something fun to print?
The 3DBenchy is pretty fun, and these planetary gears are pretty common too and are a lot of fun to play with as fidget spinners.
Another thing that you’d probably want to print is some sort of tolerance gauge like the one created by MakersMuse, and hex tolerance gauges - we created a simple profile with hex sizes ranging from 12.5mm to 13mm with 0.1mm size increments to test our printers’ tolerances (this would be ~0.492" - ~0.511" with about 0.004" increments, converting to imperial).
Baby Yoda is a good choice.
Personally I have to recommend the Cali Cat. It’s fast, fun, and is good for checking important dimensions (x, y, z, how it handles angles, etc.). I have personally printed at least 20 out of 10ish filaments on my Prusa.
I’ve always printed cubes and ladders. This will be a much needed addition.

How about a whole robot?
The frame05F is the current stuff. Everything will probably not fit on a prusa but there are the inventor files too so you cut it in half if necessary
That is the skateboard prototype
Or maybe a rack and pinion setup?
Or wait - this was printed on a prusa clone that should fit for sure
A Harmonic with a planetary inside Well our Chirons are ready and primed and there are almost 30kg of HIPS plus some Nylon and PETG sitting ready to be turned into parts in a hurry plus Fiberglass and Polyethylene resin to improve the strength
Here is one of them in action printing some skeletons for some glass tests
And then some of those skeletons glassed - I made a post on that
Those files too are in the Frame05F project.
Happy printing
