Summary

This is a 3D printed shock absorber. It was successfully printed on a Prusa i3 and an Ultimaker.I found that the support generation on Prusa slicer gave a better finish on the spring but made it extremely difficult to remove.On Cura the support removal process was very easy but it left a bad finish.

This model can be scaled down and be used as a keychain

To streamline the support removal set the support xy separation distance to 200% and for a better finish on the spring enable support roofing
