Mechanical Dancing Skeleton Toy - Bone Buddy

Meet this hilarious mechanical dancing skeleton! A 100% 3D-printed wind-up toy that comes to life with just a simple twist of the key. It makes a perfect desktop entertainment buddy, a fun anti-stress fidget, or a cool gift for friends and family.

🔥 Bone Buddy Edition (Remix Upgrade): I customized this amazing toy by creating a custom Bone Buddy head with a precisely modeled interior slot to fit the original connector. All original skeleton parts are included on the plate for an easy one-click print!

Print Profiles & Filament Recommendations
I have uploaded 2 separate print profiles depending on your available materials:

1. PETG + PLA (Highly Recommended): Uses durable PETG for the internal mechanics and standard PLA for the skeleton body.
2. Full PLA: For those who prefer to print the entire model using only one type of material.

⚠️ CRITICAL FILAMENT REQUIREMENT:

• It is strongly recommended to print all moving mechanical parts (such as the gears, levers, and linkages) using PETG or at least PLA+ / Tough PLA.
• Standard PLA in high-friction and high-stress areas like the gear train will wear down quickly or snap under spring tension.

Step-by-Step Assembly Video Guide
Assembly is very straightforward, but to ensure the smoothest movement, please follow the video tutorial step-by-step.
💡 Tip: Make sure all gears rotate freely and smoothly by hand before final locking!
