I printed this for my granddauhter, who likes cats. I had previously printed the Phone Stand with Cat (https://savagechats.com/index.php?msg=3875).

This was still printing when I came home from work. When I got to the shop, this is what I saw. I thought it looked creepy, the way the supports were connected to the cat head. It seemed like it was being consumed by the supports.

Of course, after it finished printing, someone else pointed out that it looked like hands reaching up from the plate to hold the cat's head.

This is after the supports were removed. It still needs some deburring and cleanup, but it came out nicely.

Several of my grand-kids also like cats. Also, there are also several organizing tools that you have shown that would be cool.

Could you go back, and add in the .STL files for the different things that you have printed? That would help us find, and print, the things that you show.

Thanks.
