Toluene, C7H8, is a benzene ring with one methyl group attached: a single aromatic six-membered ring carrying a CH3. Fifteen atoms in total, seven carbons and eight hydrogens, joined by fifteen bonds, nine single and six aromatic.
Every sphere on this ball-and-stick print has its element symbol engraved into it, so carbons and hydrogens are easy to tell apart with no paint needed. Look for the one carbon sitting outside the ring: it is the only sp3 carbon here, the other six belong to the aromatic ring. No stereocentres, and no hydrogen bond donors or acceptors.
Printing notes: scale it up in your slicer, add supports under the bonds and lower spheres, and use a fine layer height so the letters stay crisp.
Closest relatives in the same set: o-xylene and p-cresol.
