>> YOU MUST PRINT THIS MODEL IN TPU 95A (OR LOWER) OR FLEXIBLE PLA, IF YOU WANT A SQUISHY RESULT. TPU FOR AMS & OTHER HARDER TPUS WILL NOT WORK. <<

UPDATE 1

• Reorganized plates of profiles that should fit on the A1 Mini

UPDATE 2

• Replaced all lids with a “medium loose” option
• Added a profile for the OG tight lid
  • It's hard to know which will work best, without a test print
    • I prefer the tight lid. But it is far too tight with some filaments

HUGE shoutout to my Patron, Michael, who suggested this idea. Thank you!

You know those viral 5 below squishy dumplings. We're making our own, accessible solution. No more empty shelves. We make our own thing & we make it better! And easy to be a surprise for my Patron's customers! ❤️🔥

Notes:

🚫 NO AMS Required!

• TPU for the main body
• PLA for eyes, glint, & blush

🎨 Orientation Notes

• Eyes & blush are side-specific
• White/glint = either side
• L / R marked on bottom for easy placement

🧪 Material Tested

• ✅ TPU 95A = best feel
• ❌ 64D = too stiff (didn’t like it)
• ❔ 85A = planning to try

💨 Squish Optimization

• Holes in bottom → connect to infill space
• Helps air escape = max squish

📦 Fit & Feel

• Container = slightly tight
• Looser version lost that satisfying “pop”

💬 Final Note

• Ask questions if you’ve got ’em
• I might reply—but I’ll do my best 🖤🦊
