This is a red, white, and blue Ferris Wheel with a rubber band pulley system to turn the wheel with the crank. There are twelve carts which spin independently as the wheel turns. The parts are divided into three print jobs--one for each color--and are intended to be printed on a MakerBot Replicator (5th Edition). Lots of assembly required! Gorilla Glue is recommended for assembly, but many pieces can rely on friction to snap together.

Yes

Doesn't Matter

.15, can go smaller (.10) for the smaller pieces

Printed at 10%, but a higher infill is recommended

Could have just been an error on my printer, but the rafts were very difficult to remove from the bottoms of the wheels.
