Meet Sharky—my low-poly, print-in-place articulated shark bath toy. Designed to be fun, durable, and kid-friendly, it prints in one go with minimal brims and comes right off the bed ready to wiggle.
This model blends the satisfying motion of a flexi fidget toy with the charm of a sea creature. Great for bathtime, desk play, or as a shelf buddy for shark lovers.
🦈 Print-in-place design
🦈 Fun and flexi
🦈 Floats and swims in the bathtub or pool
🦈 No supports required — There are no surfaces with < 30° bridge angle, but I added a few painted dog ear brims in case to help prevent bed adhesion failures that some users encountered with the first version published.
🦈 Perfect for PLA, PETG, or TPU (TPU is recommended to make a softer bath toy)
🦈 Ideal for kids, gifts, or stress-relief fidgeting
🦈 Scales well—print a baby shark or a mega shark! I've provided four scaling options in the provided print profiles—just choose the appropriate plate.
Thanks for checking it out—I hope Sharky makes a splash!
Pair Sharky with my new Shark Tooth Egg Capsule for a fun gift combo:
UPDATES:
Dec. 13 2025: Revised fin design (stronger side fins and added tail fin). Aiming to improve bed adhesion and print quality. New print profiles also added, removing supports and instead using dog ear brims to hopefully greatly reduce bed adhesion-related print failures. Also added key chain variants.
