Print the test ...model to see if the pop up mechanism works well, if too stiff lower your flow rate and if too loose increase your flow rate. Print the top part on a raft to avoid the cuts getting fused together.(Note: it seems others have printed without raft and it still worked fine) The top gets glued to the base, be sure to only glue the pegs and the area close to the peg so that the basket can still pop up.
