Create your own traditional Japanese Uchiwa fan with this 3D-optimized design! The Uchiwa is a rigid, flat fan, an icon of Japanese culture, perfect for keeping cool or as a unique decorative piece.

This design lets you print a robust and lightweight structure, perfect for those moments you need a cool breeze. What's more, it includes two distinct variations for the fan's structure:

Classic Version: Features straight lines for a simple, elegant design.
"The Wave" Version: Inspired by iconic Japanese waves, adding a unique artistic touch.

For both versions, the provided .gcode files contain manual filament change pauses, allowing you to print the structure with multiple colors and highlight its details. It's a fun, functional project that blends modern technology with rich Japanese tradition!

For those who want it all, the new version blends the rigidity of the traditional version with the style of the wave version. Enjoy it!!
