Used to work as a mechanical engineer, now as software engineer. Just recently got into 3D printing which seems like a bit of both!

Prints nicely - I keep a few of these printed to hand out to kids who come to the workshop.

This prints nicely with PLA and tree supports. We printed several for a elementary school Lego League team who was doing a project related to artifacts that might be found locally.

Nice! I scaled this up to fit as large as possible diagonal on the build plate, then cut it lengthwise to print in two halves. A friend of mine added lights inside and used it as a halloween costume / accessory.

Nice design! And thank you for making it public domain - This print is going to a school fundraiser auction with a nice tricolor silk. Overall the print worked well and came out nice. I used variable layer height to get some of the flat-ish areas to come out smooth. A few minor comments for possible future improvements: - The 'snout' has a really shallow angle and some complex geometry that results in individual isolated traces across the surface - If this were smoothed out or put at a slight angle, it could come out smoother - The segments behind the legs tended to stick together and had to be wiggled a bit to free them. Not a problem, maybe the geometry in that area could use some help - This model must have a lot of fine detail in it - it seems to be much larger than comparable models. Again, not really a problem, but some overall smoothing would probably make the model smaller and would probably not be perceptible.

Very handy. I did find that I had to fiddle with it a bit to get the cart to release, but it works.
