This mouse has been constructed in a completely different manner from previous versions, with a particular focus on functional and ergonomic aspects. Think of it as a study rather than the final product. Nevertheless, I have decided to release it for those interested in experimenting. What to expect:
You can also try using PETG as a support material. Since the melting temperatures of the two materials are similar, they are incompatible (they don't "fuse" together), which is beneficial for support structures. However, PVA or the specific support material allows for superior results, and in terms of configurations, everything is automated in Bambu Studio.
This uses the wireless mouse kit from bambu lab
This was the 1st study, so I will not be making the usual render images this time. Instead, I will share the print to show how clean it comes out. Still available to print, see instruction on the bottom (Ergo Mouse I1.3mf).

And since these things don't come out of nowhere, there is a whole development process needed to make everything go smoothly. Contrary to popular belief, it’s not enough to just know how to use a 3D modeling tool and slicing software; these are just tools in an industrial design process, which is itself part of product design. And you know what? It's something everyone should try.
Simply printing pieces that others have made is just one part of the experience, a small part, not bad, but only a fraction of the experience, if you like to print you should try create something.
So, I invite everyone to give it a try. Start by taking the first step: create a simple model using the CAD tool of your choice, or make a clay sculpture, or a model of what you want (I often start with these). What matters is to begin. You already have one thing mastered: printing. Now, just take one more step to become a creator.

And here is the final version. I hope you like it.
The operation of the keys is different; the previous draft model (above) has a simpler operation, thus more straightforward, this is the case of the Bambu Lab kit, it might be the best option for actuate the buttons.
I printed this with the configuration ready to download using an A1, using the Bambu Textured PEI plate (Gold). This plate has an impressive adhesion capability. It was the first time I used it, and the adhesion is surprisingly superior to the black version. Therefore, you should not have any problems holding the model if you use this plate.
In this case, there will be no flat base, and the marks from the supports are greatly reduced.
And now the Snake Edition
