Description
This is a flexible Plesiosaur from the Triassic Period who has come to greet us in PLA. There are 17 joints of my own design which have medium resistance so the model can be posed. If you are having trouble getting the links to move, gently but firmly use a needle nose pliers to pull two of the underside "peaks" of the joints together. I do not recommend printing in smaller scale but I have been able to get it to work at 90%. It is a pretty large print area. Enjoy!
Update 5-14-18: redesigned the hinges to reduce failures (less overhang)
Printing Details
.2mm layer height
20% infill
2 shells, 2 bottom layers, 3 top layers
No supports - they will prevent the hinges from working
