Summary

This is a child's toy Bear that climbs strings by pulling them alternatively in rhythm. You may have played with one of these as a child that was made of wood.

The holes in the bear's hands are sized to work with standard paracord.

Print 1 Bear, 1 Pivot bar, 1 tail, and 2 beads.

Pivot bar hangs from the center, long strings hang down from sides of the pivot bar, then go through the holes in the bear's hands, and finally the beads are added at the bottom. A single knot in the paracord is big enough to stop the string from passing through any of the holes. Tie a knot about 6 inches above the bead so that when the bear comes back down, it does not slam into the child's hands.

The cavity in the Bear is so that you can add weight if yours is sliding back down too slowly. Fill it with pennies, nickels, washers, fishing weights, etc, then glue the tail in place to cover the hole.

Nothing should require support.

I printed all the parts at 20% infill since it could be handled roughly, and it is VERY strong. You could probably get away with less.

2D Bear shape outline was drawn by hand, then converted to svg and imported into Tinkercad. 3d parts (face, belly, fingers, toes) added via basic Tinkercad shapes. Beads, pivot bar, and tail also designed in Tinkercad.

I do not have an AMS or multi-filament printer... the change in color was a happy little accident when I ran out of green and switched to blue.
