Baby Yoda 3D Printing Figurine | Assembly

ABOUT THIS 3D FIGURINEBaby Yoda, who’s officially referred to as "The Child”, is a breakout star of The Mandalorian television series. The precious little 50-year-old creature is on "the most wanted" list and he travels across the New Republic alongside the bounty hunter called Mando who keeps the baby safe. It doesn’t matter whether The Child is eating a frog with delight or is slurping bone broth - every single scene featuring the cute baby seems to be able to shatter even the coldest hearts. The author of this Baby Yoda figurine was also enchanted by the mischievous creature and spent 122 hours working on the project for any enthusiast to obtain a high-quality model to join the collection. No matter if you are a Star Wars fan or not, you must have definitely seen the iconic scene of The Child messing with the Mandalorian ship, pushing every little button and playing with any switch he could reach. In his design, the 3D artist decided to go for a particular scene of Baby Yoda accidentally breaking off the joystick knob, hence further annoying Mando (who obviously has a soft spot for the playful child). What is more, the author of the figurine for 3D printing made sure to provide an alternative variant of hand without said knob for you to display your Baby Yoda as if he's trying to use the Force. And we did witness that The Child is far more capable than he lets on. We are pretty sure you are already eager to start the project - the STL files of Baby Yoda for  3D printing are ready for you to download!ADAPTATION FOR 3D PRINTINGBaby Yoda for 3D printing is a static assembly figurine and its moderation and adaptation for different types of 3D printers took Gambody team 33 hours in total. Baby’s child-like anatomy and proportions were thoroughly reviewed during the moderation process for the figurine to be depicted harmoniously in the intended pose. The model’s cutting in its assembly version was chosen by our team to minimise the amount of filament needed for generated support and some of the parts were hollowed out for you to save resin in Baby Yoda’s Eco version. In order to conceal the places where assembly parts of the model must be connected, the tiny hero was cut along the contour of his little robe seams. For you to achieve the cleanest result possible such parts as figurine’s feet, hands, scarf, ears and joystick knob are provided as separate files. All assembly parts are provided in STL files in recommended positions that were worked out in order to ensure the smoothness of the details’ surfaces after printing and that the 3D printing beginners won't face difficulties when placing the parts on a build plate. The figurine is saved in STL files, a format supported by most 3D printers. All STL files for 3D printing have been checked in Netfabb and no errors were shown.The model's scale was calculated from Baby Yoda's actual height that is 405 mm. The 3D printing figurine's chosen scale is 1/2 for the FFF/FDM version and 1/4 for the DLP/SLA/SLS versions.VERSIONS' SPECIFICATIONSFFF/FDM 1.0 version features:- Contains 19 parts;- A printed model is 218 mm tall, 225 mm wide, 224 mm deep;- Assembly kit includes locks to attach the model's parts securely without glue.

The parameters can vary depending on the peculiarities of your 3D printer, the material you use and especially the particular assembly part at hand. Each part that any model comprises often needs preliminary review and you are free to tweak the settings the way you find suitable.Note:- You can scale up the model (downscaling is not recommended!);- All connectors should be printed at 100% Infill;- For all parts of locks (“ge_lock” in “Source files”) you need to change "Brim" type to "Skirt" in Build Plate Adhesion section.QualityLayer Height: 0.12 mm (you can also set Layer Height at 0.16 or 0.2mm for 0.4mm nozzles)Initial Layer Height: 0.2 mm (carefully level the print bed and keep your Initial Layer Height the same as the main Layer Height)Line Width: 0.4 mmWall Line Width: 0.4 mmOuter Wall Line Width: 0.4 mmInner Wall(s) Line Width: 0.4 mmTop/Bottom Line Width: 0.4 mmInfill Line Width: 0.4 mmSkirt/Brim Line Width: 0.4 mmSupport Line Width: 0.4 mmInitial Layer Line Width: 100%Shell Wall Thickness: 0.8 mmWall Line Count: 2Outer Wall Wipe Distance: 0.3 mmTop Surface Skin Layers: 0Top/Bottom Thickness: 0.6 mmTop Thickness: 0.6 mmTop Layers: 5Bottom Thickness: 0.6 mmBottom Layers: 5Initial Bottom Layers: 5Top/Bottom Pattern: LinesBottom Pattern Initial Layer: LinesTop/Bottom Line Directions: [ ]Outer Wall Inset: 0 mmOptimize Wall Printing Order: CheckCompensate Wall Overlaps: CheckCompensate Inner Wall Overlaps: CheckMinimum Wall Flow: 0%Fill Gaps Between Walls: EverywhereFilter Out Tiny Gaps: CheckHorizontal Expansion: 0 mmInitial Layer Horizontal Expansion: 0 mmHole horizontal expansion: 0Z Seam Alignment: User SpecifiedZ Seam Position: BackZ Seam X: Average length of your printer’s plate (e.g.”150” if your plate is 300mm on the X-axis)Z Seam Y: A value higher than the length of your plate on the Y-axis (e.g. 700)Seam Corner Preference: Hide SeamExtra Skin Wall Count: 1Skin Overlap Percentage: 10%Skin Overlap 0.04 mmInfill Infill Density: 20% (for all smaller parts and for all parts of connectors use 100% Infill)Infill Pattern: TrianglesConnect Infill Lines: CheckInfill Line Directions: [ ]Infill X Offset: 0 mmInfill Y Offset: 0 mmInfill Line Multiplier: 1Extra Infill Wall Count: 0Infill Overlap Percentage: 10-20%Infill Overlap: 0.04 mmSkin Overlap Percentage: 5%Skin Overlap: 0.02 mmInfill Wipe Distance: 0 mmInfill Layer Thickness: 0.24 mmGradual Infill Steps: 0Infill Before Walls: CheckMinimum Infill Area: 0 mm2Skin Removal Width: 0.8 mmTop Skin Removal Width: 0.8 mmBottom Skin Removal Width: 0.8 mmSkin Expand Distance: 0.8Top Skin Expand Distance: 0.8Bottom Skin Expand Distance: 0.8Maximum Skin Angle for Expansion: 90˚Minimum Skin Width for Expansion: 0.0Skin Edge Support Thickness: 0Skin Edge Support Layers: 0Material Initial Layer Flow: 100%Printing Temperature: See your filament settingsInitial Printing Temperature: Your filament settingsFinal Printing Temperature: Your filament settingsBuild Plate Temperature: Your filament settingsBuild Plate Temperature Initial Layer: Your filament settings + 5°Flow: 100% (Important!
