Articulated Ball Python (May Design) (Archived)

Hello Everyone!
Introducing our latest design, the Articulated Ball Python snake it is a mostly print-in-place design. The head is a snap to fit with the body and you need to glue the eyes with the head eyes sockets, I recommend using super glue for that.

Some folks may find it difficult to snap it you know because some printers extrude a bit more but don't worry I came up with a solution for this as I have added a 'Joint Scale Test' Use this as the initial test print to save time. Downscale by increments of 2% until you achieve a perfect fit. Once you find the perfect scale for the head joint, apply that scale to the original head size.
remember to apply a scale to both the Head and Jaw.

By the way as usual I have also added a prepainted file, I have painted it with only two colors to save the layerchange time and material wastage, If you don't care about the time just fill the inside of this mouth with some pink skin color with color painting tool in Bambu studio.

Those who have 220x220mm Printers Please downscale the design by 100% > 90% to fit on your print bed, this won't hinder any joint issue as I have tested it at 80% as well and it works just great.


For optimal results, here are the recommended settings:

• No need for supports!

• Aim for a layer height between 0.18mm to 0.22mm

• Stick to 2 walls

• Bottom layers: 3

• Top layers: 5

• Shoot for a 10% infill (Gyroid all the way!)

• Downscale from 100% to 80%
