This was inspired by The Fidget Snek: https://www.printables.com/model/106258-fidget-snek

When I handed the Fidget Snek to my daughter she declared that it should be more round, have a face, and have lines on it like a worm.  So, the Articulated Fidget Worm was born.  I thought it would be a fun challenge to try and make such a thing from scratch, so here we are. 

It prints fine at .2 layer height, but .12 is a little nicer.  No supports should be necessary, and there's enough contact on the bed that you shouldn't need a brim.  

The roundness of the figure actually makes it feel good to hold and mess with, and it's pretty cute.  The segments collapse all the way together, which turned out to be more satisfying than I expected.  It ended up reminding me very much of Slimey from Sesame Street.  

Enjoy!
