Description

Jiminy Cricket, the Walt Disney version of the "Talking Cricket", a fictional character created by Italian writer Carlo Collodi for his 1883 children's book The Adventures of Pinocchio.

Jiminy was originally an unnamed, minor character in Collodi's novel who is killed by Pinocchio before returning as a ghost. He was transformed for the Disney adaptation into a comical and wisecracking partner who accompanies Pinocchio on his adventures

No supports are required. Two pieces contains built-in supports and braces. Optional parts without the built-in supports and braces are also supplied if you want to use your slicer supports (see notes below). If you have the proper filament colors, no painting is needed.

The assembled model is 285mm tall.

Enjoy!

Special shoutout to maker Benoît Lussier for providing QA printing and quality feedback.

Another shoutout to the guys at 3DBoom for printing a beautiful copy of this model. A picture of the front view of their print is included. See their build under their full make for more details.

**Printing and assembly tips**

Printing tips
1 - No supports are required. Two pieces contain built-in supports and/or braces, jacket and hat_brim. Optional parts without the built-in support and braces are also supplied if you want to use your slicer supports. The built-in supports and braces are designed for a .4mm nozzle and for the size that the model is presented. Use your discretion for which parts to use if you resize the model significantly.

2 - There are some pieces that may need brims or rafts, use your discretion. When setting up my prints I prefer to be conservative to ensure the least chance of a print failure, especially since the base of many parts are hidden when inserted into another part.

*I used brims on:
- legs

*I used rafts on:
- umbrella tip (I printed the tip and the spats_buttons at the same time to allow the tip some cooling time between layers)
- spats_buttons
- hand_right
- hand_left
- collar

3 - When removing parts from the printer bed, it's a **VERY** good idea to place left/right parts into separate containers to help with the assembly process.

4 - Your colors most likely will vary from mine, especially the green. I look forward to seeing the colors makers will choose.

..
Assembly tips:

1 - Take your time gluing the model together and enjoy the process. Give some thought into which parts to glue together as groups and then gluing the groups together. Let the glue for each group set completely before combining groups.

2 - I used 3D Gloop and E6000 to put this model together. I am not affiliated with 3D Gloop but have experimented with different glues for my models and have found that this glue is a great option for my models. Each type of glue has different pros/cons and I found that 3D Gloop was far easier to use than superglue (for me). The E6000 sticky glue that I also use allows more time to position parts and is still the best for smaller parts. 3D Gloop covers the middle ground for me and really works wonders. It leaves enough time to set, so parts can be positioned correctly and it dries fast enough to hold awkward parts without the need for taping. I used the PLA version that comes in a tube. For both glues using a smaller amount is usually better than more glue.

3 - I glued the hat pieces together and the right hand and arm together. Once set, I glued the hand to the hat. The hand should be positioned with the flat portion of the thumb fully touching the underside of the brim, and the hand positioned (mostly) against the flat part of the brim for maximun gluing surface.

4 - I put the model together and the umbrella separately. Depending on how the right had is positioned (there is a small bit of leeway), the umbrella tip may be a tad too long and may need to be slightly shortened to ensure the model fully sits flat.

5 - Refer to the assembly diagrams in the pictures section as well as the uploaded pictures for putting the model together. The model is meant to be glued.

Do not hesitate to ask questions, feedback is essential to making better models.

Perfekt! Vielen Dank!

@hnbtt1

how do you get it to print smaller? I have tried 3 different sizes 50, 70, and 75% and two different printers and even tried slowing it down by half. everything prints but the jacket and it fails the exact same places on all of them but 100% it prints fine.

same issue with the jacket... 4 fails now and I even added more supports.

Exquisite print This was my most challenging print due to the jacket, which consistently detached at the same point I had to add a new support structure and conduct tests until it finally printed Then I added another support to print it at 50% and succeeded I have uploaded the profiles so that those experiencing difficulties can print the jacket at both 100% and 50% Many thanks to the creator of this print

@reddadsteve

Thank you for loading the print profiles for the jacket. However, please read my notes about how I post my models when a part needs support. Slicer and printers keep changing and presupported parts may no longer hold a model in place while it prints due to one of those changes. Simply adding more supports should be straightforward but apparently many Bambu makers only use print profiles. Teamwork, Steve

@xarjo

Replying to @reddadsteve :

Thank you very much for everything. I tried adding more supports to the jacket from Bambu Studio, but it was to no avail. I had to add supports from an external program and conduct tests until it worked. You are right, not all printers are the same, nor are the filaments, which is why some could print the jacket without problems and others could not. Let's see if the new profiles can solve it, although there will always be someone for whom it does not work. Thank you very much for your work

Replying to @xarjo :

FYI-For some parts that may be difficult to print, I create 'braces' to go with the supports. Again, the braces are only tested and work at the size posted. I now have two QA people who print my models before I post. So new models are printed on three different types of machines. The QA guy who uses Bambu printers now posts print profiles that I trust. So, my new models will have a print profile from maker 'Gatekeeper'. I fully trust those print profiles, so use them when possible. Teamwork, Steve

So cute that I printed him twice! I wanted to make him smaller because he is usually a lot smaller than Pinocchio, he looks great & is super cute. Thank you

beautiful print. I can’t get the hat glued yet.. gonna have to buy some gloop I guess!… printed in silks (only pants and boots are matte).. ty Steve!

The designer has replied

@reddadsteve

He looks so dignified in silk! As for the hat, tacky glue, like E6000, is still good for that. Just put the glue on both parts (not too much, and let it set a bit and get more tacky before joining the parts. Either lean the model so it balances better while fully drying our use some masking tape to hold it in place. Most people do not have the patience to let the glue dry a pit and get tackier before joining the parts. Teamwork, Steve

@articul8

Replying to @reddadsteve :

thanks Steve. I ended up ordering Pla Goop.. I’ll also do the tape thing. Ty for the feedback

Awesome! A little tricky to print jacket but after a few attempts it's done :) Thank you!

@Biro

I too am having problems with the jacket, how did you resolve it

@pepperprints3d

Replying to @Biro :

Finally, I downloaded the jacket STL without preset supports and manually designed the supports, tilting the jacket approximately 35°. It printed perfectly on the first try :)

How did you position the head

@leonardombn

Even using the 100% jacket profile I had problems on the first try, I will review the supports. This jacket really seems problematic

The designer has replied

@reddadsteve

So strange that some makers have a problem where most makers do not. Could be differences in filament or speed. But either way, I see print profiles that are loaded specifically with supports for the jacket. I also loaded the part without the built-in supports so you can add slicer supports instead. Teamwork, Steve

@leonardombn

Replying to @reddadsteve :

hello your models are amazing, I had no problems with pinocchio, but this jacket I have already made two unsuccessful attempts, I will try to add supports myself, anyway I thank you for the amazing models provided!
