IntroMy friend’s guinea pig lost the ability to move its hind legs due to illness. He asked me to help by 3D printing a wheelchair so she could move again. As a former guinea pig owner, I couldn’t say no. However, I wasn’t satisfied with the models I found available online, so I decided to create my own 3D model, based on my experience caring for guinea pigs and the insights I discovered while researching the topic.Featuresanatomical curvature that fits most adult guinea pigs' sizes;3 options for strap connecting;smooth bottom side with ‘anti-stuck’ ramp in front;no hard edges, all curved to not scratch the animal;straps are blocking touching the wheels;ventilation + anti-slip holes;lightweight - base is only 33g with 10% gyroid infill Boost MeIf you found this print useful, please give it a boost and leave your feedback in the comments.
