About this model
I made a water droplet desk toy. When you crank the handle on the side, the top moves in a wave-like pattern, imitating a droplet landing in water. I was inspired by this. Here is a gif of it moving from the side and here's one from the top. Update 9/27/17 5:00 PM: Fixed center droplet to be scaled properly to the rest of the model. Update 9/22/17 11:30 AM: Added STEP file containing all pieces for easier modifications. Update 9/19/17 2:15 PM: Added "Top Strip" and "Middle Strip." This will allow for a quicker print time and a different overall style.
