Optimized Sir Flexington Rexington

thingiverse

I love the Flexi Rex and I really adore Sir Flexington Rexington. However, I felt like the original model was a bit suboptimal, so I basically overhauled the hat and monocle to make them function more effectively. And while I was at it, I made the hat printable separately so I could execute filament color changes to truly make him sophisticated. Unfortunately, this means that the small tab requires supports to print correctly, but any slicer should be able to handle such a tiny support without issue. I used PrusaSlicer and added a support enforcer to ensure it only adds supports to that specific area. And for good measure, I created a modifier box to have it fill in the bottom few segments of the tail, making it less top-heavy. The model should not tip over if you don't use 100% infill on the tail segments, but it will be quite top-heavy and topple over more easily. I'm aware that other slicers also support adding modifier meshes, so you don't have to use PrusaSlicer.
