Description

Scabby the Rat is a miniature version of the classic union inflatable rat commonly used by striking or protesting union workers in the United States.  They serve as a sign of opposition against employers or nonunion contractors and are intended to call public attention to companies employing nonunion labor or engaging in union-busting activities.  While the inflatable rat sometimes varies in appearance and size, it generally features large teeth and grotesque features, particularly a scabby belly.  The rats typically range from 6 to 30 feet (1.8 to 9.1 m) tall, but 12 feet (3.7 m) is the most popular height due to local laws limiting the height of inflatable objects on display.

 

This little fella is small enough to fit on the print bed of your A1 Mini.  I've oriented him to minimize the need for supports but you're welcome to fiddle with it and, ahem, build a better mouse trap.

 

Scabby is a great gift for the unionized workers in your family.  If they love collective bargaining, they're sure to love Scabby.  Also suitable for anyone who wants a grotesque looking rat statuette for some reason.  Enjoy!
