This is my interpretation of the COVID-2019 Coronavirus. Being stuck at home because of this stupid thing, I decided to make a macro plastic version of it.I took inspitation from images online of the corona virus and https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4166787 but this is not a remix, it is a from scratch design. I dislike supports and I also wanted to make a multicolor version without a multi material printer, so I set to work and designed this thing.

This is very easy to print even on a very small printer. The body is 50mm in diameter and the spikes are a little over 20mm. You will need to print 2 body halves, 1 pin and 45 spikes. I used a brim on the spikes and set the printer to ZHop as not to knock the spikes over while printing. I used some adhesive for car trim to hold it together, but 3d gloop,or super glue, or even hot glue would work fine to assemble it. I printed this in translucent blue PLA and red PLA.

It is a little cartoony in it's dimensions, but it is a good reference piece. I think it would be a good project for all those kids who are out of school during the pandemic shutdown.

I promise that printing this will not infect you with the Virus! Wash your hands and be careful out there!
