Hey Everyone!
It's ready! The Early Release of the Hammerhead Shark is upon us!
The head model comes with a fully pre-supported, but don't just toss away the side supports when you remove them. With some careful balancing, they become nice little custom wedges to help stand the shark up for taking photos.
I'm planning to release this model to Cults3D next week. In the meantime, I would love to hear any feedback so that I can address any issues before I release it there.
Happy Printing!
Matt

3D PRINTING SETTINGS
Body: Print-In-Place. (So far I do not see a need for custom brims, but let me know if you feel they would help. note: generating brims in-slicer can make fin cleanup a bit of work.)
Head pre-supported (recommended): Snap-Fit to Body. Pre-Supported for easy printing. No additional support needed.
Head: bare version. no supports included. I wouldn't use this one unless you have a specific need for it.
5-15% Infill.
3 Walls.
Here is a quick video showing the easiest method for snap-fitting the head onto the body: https://youtu.be/DWsYu2BY7ow

I printed a 70% one which turned out great and fully articulated. I imagine it could go a little bit smaller even. Maybe 60-65%

2022-11-30 17:48:23 +0000 UTCWhat is the smallest safe printing size on this one? Thanks!

2022-11-30 17:38:31 +0000 UTCwith a steady hand you get it to stand without the supports too, I really like this feature. What would make it even better for me is to add locking points for the front fins similar to the leopard gecko, he could then be posed for display a bit more upright otherwise he is a bit flat as a display piece. You can see a pic of mine displayed on his tail with no supports here: https://photos.app.goo.gl/tvdL7hboJCpiM4UL7 and https://photos.app.goo.gl/gDJnpRbTe2M6Qkhy9 google photos share

2022-11-30 00:53:34 +0000 UTCHi! You can see it in the second picture. I basically lay the wedge flat on the table and rest the last tail joint in the U shaped part of the support. Then it’s all about trying to balance the body on that. It’s not the easiest, but with a little trial and error it should work. Haha. The filament is Cookiecad Blue Ombré

2022-11-27 19:17:56 +0000 UTCGot done printing turned out great on my ender 3 s-1 pro at %100. The neck joint was really hard to put on was afraid I was gonna break it. But it worked just fine. How do you get it to stand on the extra supports by the way? Could you post a pic of it? Also what filament did you use? love the color of yours

2022-11-23 18:16:22 +0000 UTCMight just be me, but at 80% the middle support of the presupported head doesn't print right, just leaves an open circle.
