This past week, I was able to finalize the solidworks design and 3D print the design. Although the 3D print didn’t have the finish I was hoping for due to its complexity, it does fit the bear spray bottle curvature. Next steps, now that I have time, will be to start thinking about the circuitry and light fixtures that can bring this to life!

    Sounds like you are moving right along! Sometimes you can improve the quality of a 3D print by adjusting the print settings. If you are using a 3D printer that get frequent use, you might also consider checking that the nozzle is clean, and that the print bed is level. What type of lighting fixture are you planning to use? I am excited to see the final version and keep up the great work!
