This is a fun project but not exactly “print and play”.  There are a lot of parts that need to be assembled while making sure everything runs freely and has a bit of grease on shafts and gears to keep everything running smoothly.  With most parts, it's best to have the seam position set to “Random”.  This makes sure that things turn smoothly without running into a seam.

Helpful items:

Cranky Cat Screwdriver which you can find here:

          https://www.printables.com/model/1108441-cranky-cat-screw-driver

          A regular flat head screwdriver will also work.

Cranky Cat Great Pot which you can find here:

         https://www.printables.com/model/1108312-cranky-cat-grease-pot

         The recommended grease etc. is all detailed on the grease pot page.

And here's the assembly video:

Most parts seem to print no problem.  The cat body with the pointy ears can be a bit of a problem for warping / adhesion.  Enabling the brim will fix this problem.

If you like what I'm doing, it would be great if you could buy me a coffee (or help buy more filament in this case LOL!)  Here's the link:
