Description

A chubby kakapo — the flightless ground parrot of New Zealand — shrunk

down into an earring-sized charm with a built-in hanging loop for jump

rings, ear wires, or keychain split rings.

- ~30 mm tall body, integral loop at the top

- Prints standing upright; no supports needed for the body

- Pairs of two make cute earrings; one on a chain makes a pendant

⚠️  Heads-up on the loop

The built-in hanging loop is fairly thin — looks fine printed but it

*can* snap if you yank on it or drop the piece on a hard floor. Print

with at least 3 walls and PLA+/PETG for a bit more toughness, and

consider threading a real metal jump ring through the loop rather than

hanging the charm directly off an ear wire. If you have a strong

preference for a chunkier loop, scale the whole model up ~10 % before

slicing — the loop thickens with it.

Photos: printed in cyan PLA, 0.2 mm layer height. Some stringing on

the loops in the photos — a quick toothbrush or lighter-flash cleans

it up.
