Printing Parameters Layer Height : 0.08mm is recommended to ensure a smooth finish Infill Percentage : 15% for optimal balance of strength and material usage. Support/Adhesion : No support Plate : Smooth PEI Plate or Textured Plate all works great 4. Assembly Instructions The model is designed in two pieces to avoid the need for supporting structures. This allows you to achieve a flawless printing surface with your finest printing profile. A snap-fit structure is designed to help the two parts join together easily and precisely. Glue is not necessary for the assembly, but there is space for glue if you want to ensure a permanent joint. If you printed with an older profile, the hooks might be thinner and easy to break. Please be gentle when assembling the two pieces. This issue has been fixed with the 2024/01/02 updated profile. This issue is fixed with my 2024/01/02 Updated profile Have fun printing your own little dino?! Don't forget to share a picture of your dino in the comment! Additional notes: If you don't have AMS for multicolor printing, you can remove the eye components from the printing profile. The model will still print fine, and you can then use a pen or marker to draw the eyes afterward. 5. Gallery of Finished Prints 6. Version History and Updates 2024/05/12 Update Update document Add demo section for finished prints 2024/02/11 Update: Add chamfer in the body internal part to make the assembly easier and avoid breaking the snap structure. 2024/01/02 Update Combine two components into one profile, hide old print profile Make hooks and grooves in the snap-fit structure thicker and stronger to avoid breaking issue mentioned in the comments I was using PLA Tough for the body structure print, so I didn't encountered this breaking issue in the past. One day I tried PLA Basic for the body and I noticed this issue might be very common as some comments mentioned (So I found out PLA Tough is a little bit different from PLA Basic indeed LOL). Thanks so much for sharing your printing experience! Add chamfer for the hook structure to support the new change Update raw model file and print profile with new design 2023/12/12 Update Add model and print profile of a base for the T-Rex to help it stand on the desk more stably. 7.
