【Design Overview】 This design draws inspiration from the iconic sculpture “The May Wind” at Qingdao’s May Fourth Square in China. It is not only an artistic reproduction that embodies the spirit of the city, but also a fun, interactive toy that incorporates a sophisticated mechanical structure.

【Key Features】

• Hidden Motion Mechanism: The model features an ingeniously integrated hidden motion latch within its structure. While maintaining the original sculpture’s sleek, streamlined aesthetic of swirling and ascending motion, each component can now swing smoothly and fluidly when touched—providing a deeply satisfying, stress-relieving experience.
• Dual-Printing Compatibility: The model has been meticulously optimized for both FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) and resin (SLA) printers, ensuring outstanding print quality regardless of the technology used.
• Golden-Ratio Dimensions: The finished model measures 10 cm × 10 cm × 1 cm, making it ideal as a desktop ornament, keychain pendant, or cultural gift.

【Printing Recommendations】

• Dimensions: 100 x 100 x 10 mm
• FDM Printing:
  • Suggested layer height: 0.12–0.16 mm (to ensure fine detail in the motion latch)
  • Filling: 15%–20%
  • Supports: Depending on the orientation, a small number of supports may be required.
• Resin Printing:
  • It is recommended to use a high-toughness resin to prevent brittle fracture of the moving parts.
  • After printing, be sure to thoroughly rinse out any residual resin trapped inside the motion latch.

【Final Thoughts】 This is more than just a static model—it’s the rhythmic pulse of the city at your fingertips. We hope this model brings you the sea breeze and passion of Qingdao! Feel free to share your own print results and color schemes.
