Out of the Vault: Santa Beardies!

Happy Chirstmas in... May!  

The Santa Beardies are now out of The Vault for those who weren't around when this exclusive first came out.  Christmas will be here before we know it... might as well get a head start!!  ;)

About the Vault: I didn't like the idea of my Exclusive models coming out and never being available to new Patrons, so that's where The Vault comes in.  It gives first release benefits to current Patrons, yet new Patrons don't have to miss ou...

Patreon Bonus: Tardigrade Magnets (new options)!!

Hey All!!

I just added the bonus Tardigrade Magnet to the downloads post.  You'll notice that there are two versions of the magnet files.  One is the same as all the others, where you glue in the magnet on the back once printed.  The other "Captive" version is fully enclosed, and doesn't require any glue (a great suggestion from one of my Patrons!).  Simply drop them in as the model is printing.*  They work great and offer more versatility in how you want to mak...

...April Sneak Peek

Hey Everybody!

Here's a small tease for this month's main release.  This fella is a little different than my other animal designs, so I hope you enjoy exploring another realm of the animal kingdom with me.  The good news is, it'll only be a tiny wait.  I'm just tidying up a few itty-bitty details, so I'm expecting to release it tomorrow!   

Cheers! ;)

Patreon Bonus: Jakalope Magnet!

Hey All!!

I just added the bonus Jackalope Magnets to the downloads post.  This one is a little different than the other magnets.  In order to avoid the need for supports, it does not print on it's back like the others.  As a result, It has two flat spots with cutouts for the magnets.  Yay for options!
Enjoy!

Cheers!

This design comes with two separate snap-fit tail options.  In reality, Crested Geckos drop their tails quite easily, and unlik...

Couldn't resist everyone seeing this image early!  It was fun watching you guys try and guess the model in last months teaser image, and a lot of you got it right.  This month, I thought I'd try an even more mysterious glimpse.  Who wants to venture a guess?  I'll be releasing the model later this week!

Rattlesnake now has a Snap-Fit Rattle!

By popular demand!  I have added a snap-fit option for the rattle, so it can be easily printed in a different filament and attached later!  

I did my very best to find a well balanced fit for this, but due to the widely varying tolerances that can occur with different printers and filament, some people may need to use additional aids to secure the joint.  If it is loose you may need to add some super-glue to the joint to firm it up.  If it is tight you may need a pl...
