Ashley Wong: Cat Toy

 

My project is a cat toy, which can be put on a fishing pole. There is a cannister that extrudes into the ball that can be used to hold catnip. The hole is plugged by a small rectangle that is connected to the fish pole, which was originally to be locked in place by an/a acrylic/wood plank, but will have to be a wire wrapped around string due to sizing issues. The bell inside was originally intended to be placed midway through printing, but to make sure that it was definitely inside, it was printed in half and then glued back together. The outside is decorated by fishbones, cats, and pawprints. The fishing pole is made by braiding three strings together and securing the ends by wrapping wire around the string and secured in place with electrical tape.
