SnoLabs Penguin

cults3d

Introducing the SnoLabs Penguin! Lost from his flock this little guy was left waddling around in Antarctica's harsh environment. After long days lost in snowstorms, he was luckily found unconscious by some inventive Makers who were able to revive him. Fortunately, these Makers had a 3D printer that allowed them to create an exoskeleton with a jetpack! However, during the procedure, he woke up with a case of amnesia. This model is support-free and features 8 points of articulation in its flaps, feet, tail, knees, and rotating head! His printed/sitting height is 100 mm. We will be posting larger 130 mm and smaller 80 mm models as well! We do not recommend scaling the model, so we have different sizes available that are optimized for 80 mm and 100 mm sitting heights. Update: July 14, 2019 - The 100 mm version has been successfully scaled up to 300% multiple times. Major shout-out to Louise Driggers a.k.a. Loubie for designing this model in Blender for SnoLabs! Printing Tips: The penguins are precision prints that require your printers and filament dialed in correctly with optimized retraction. The model is designed to print in place without any supports. If you have adhesion issues, we recommend using PEI sheets and Magigoo. Don't forget to tag @SnoLabs3D and Loubie in your posts! These penguins were printed with SnoLabs filaments and tested with our PLA, PLA+, PC+, and PETG available on our site, https://SnoLabs.com 2023 SnoLabs LLC. Note: If you downloaded the 100 mm V3 version, there is an issue with the tail not articulating. This issue has been fixed in V4. Update: August 27, 2018 - It didn't affect print quality, but to have a better model, we addressed the degenerative triangles in v4 with v6.
