This is an automaton design of a traditional Chinese dragon flying under two arches.

Before putting together the assembly, you'll need to create a little dragon out of clay and colors of your choice.

While creating this design my partner and I ran into some difficulty with the the cams and having them being able to work in order for the dragon to rotate on the axis, before you begin anything you'll want to apply sandpaper around the circumference of cam F and a circle of sandpaper onto the surface of cam E.

You'll also may need to cut or sand down some of the parts in order for everything to fit together nicely.

Assembly:
After your parts have been printed, lay duplicated parts next to each other.
Part B & D as well as Part A & C are identical pieces, arrange A & C so that they are vertical and that the shorter distance between the edge and the hole is closest to the table.
Fit the pieces together using Parts B & D
Put crank I into the side of the box and slide cam F f
