Description

Please read the description before choosing a print profile

 

With this kit you'll be able to build a best friend crab in no time!

Crab Friend is a project that took its inspiration from a 2024 Makerworld contest for Mecha's, for which at the time I wasn't skilled enough to model it. Now that I can do a couple of things here and there, I decided to give it a try!

 

The two print profiles give you either: 

 

🔒🦀 Ready Crab Kit - A ready to assemble pre-picked parts kit (for the model seen on pictures)

🔧🦀 Crab Framework - Complete kit with many part variants for ultimate customization!

 

Before printing you need to know that:

 

⚙️ Filament should be calibrated beforehand to avoid clearance issues

🔒 Buckles are one way only - don't try pulling them apart or they might break

❌ Since the model has quite a lot overhangs, better avoid Silk Filaments (or at least avoid it for anyting with threads/buckles)

💧 I'd reccoment gluing the eyes to the face block 

 

Assembly instructions are available in the model pictures!

Let me see your creations and abominations!! :D

⭐This model is fully compatible with Perry the Platypus!

Do you have a bunch of random filaments on your shelf that are cool colors but never actually get used for things? I do! So I used them to make a friend. 😁

Everything required for the display model ("Ready Crab Kit" print profile) along with the instructions can be found in the pictures above :) Other than that, feel free to combine the parts as you like, every part is compatible with each other!

Replying to @bzioo :
Yeah, that is what I did, actually. I am printing it now and I am going to give it to my friend's child as a gift. I have turned the pictures into a PDF file and I will give it in a gift bag. Thank you again.
