Check out this delightful and sweet Articulated Octopus model for 3D printing! 🐙 It's designed to be completely Print In Place!

This charming octopus comes with three different tentacles, each with its own special talent.

The first one is hook-shaped, perfect for hanging around or attaching to various things.
The second tentacle has a hole-like shape, ideal for holding onto the third tentacle.
Speaking of which, the third tentacle connects seamlessly to the second one and fits into the octopus's main body.

This little guy can even stand on its tentacles, though you might need to help it find its balance. It's printed in PLA and PET-G, and while it’s pretty detailed, I wouldn't recommend scaling it down below 100%—those tiny pieces are small enough as is!

One important note: the bed adhesion needs to be spot on. We recommend thoroughly cleaning the print bed and using glue if needed to ensure everything sticks perfectly.

Let’s give this octopus a leg up—well, a tentacle up—with a friendly boost! 🐙

I love this print having already printed 4! Just the back 4 tentacles are a little odd it would be really cool if they all looked like the curled front ones 😊 Maybe a fun remix?

They look odd but you can connect them to other tentacles. I can make one without that option. If you concider becoming Patreon I can make one octopus just for you with your suggestion in my mind 😉

Printed in PLA Galaxy Nebulae. Scaled up by 150% to completely fill the print bed and added a brim because I worried about adhesion. Not the greatest idea I ever had, I'd have probably been fine without, but it worked. I spent a fair amount of time removing the brim from all the small pieces though. This was for a 10-year-old. He loved it.
