Ah, the holidays. A time for family, and about as much relaxation as you can manage while the kids are out of school and fueled on a daily dose of seasonal chocolate from their advent calendars.
Your 3D printer can help (somewhat), with quick prints that provide a daily dose of fun. 3D printed advent gifts, if you will.
All month until December 25th we’re bringing you All3DP Unwrapped: daily highlights of quick and easy toys that you can 3D print over the holiday season. We’re sure to dig up something fun for you, whether it’s a daily advent toy, gifts for the holiday celebrated by your family, or just a micro project for yourself. Check it out!
Paper Plane Launcher by Sevro
No, wait, it is a plane, after all – a paper one, to be exact. And it was shot from the Ultimate Plane Launcher. Boasting easy assembly and a simple, handgun-style design that’s a straightforward print and assembly, this launcher is good for essentially any variety of paper plane, and needs only three rubber bands to function properly. Just load the plane, point, and shoot (away from anything breakable, preferably).
There are a few GIFs of the launcher in action – and those showing proper loading technique – plus an assembly diagram on the Printables page. So be sure to check them out before takeoff.
