Small Festive Valentines Day Bow and Arrow

I was tired of overpriced toys just because Valentines day is just around the corner. This is why I created this small and sturdy little bow and arrow that is both affordable and fun for anyone with a 3d printer.

To make any toy, first you have to create the idea. This took a ot more time than one would think but finally after a couple weeks, it came to me. Why not a fun bow and arrow designed like the very one Cupid has. Once I had the idea it was on to step two.

Once the idea was developed, it was on to make the vision a reality. I jumped onto the easiest 3D software I knew, Tinkercad. This is the website I used to create the first draft of the toy. I'm not going to lie, it did not look great but it was still a work in progress.

Once I had figured out the dynamics of a bow from one of my previous projects, I was able to find a working shape that I used to create this bow (It took three failed bows until I found the one that worked the best). Once the shape was made, I added some details to make it more festive for the holiday and it was ready to print.

Once I pressed print, it took only about an hour until this marvelous toy was finished. Then by adding a rubber band, it had reached its final form. Its a lot of fun to play with and hopefully others think that too.
