Early Release: Sloth!! (with Tree display)

***THIS FILE IS NO LONGER INCLUDED FREE WITH SUBSCRIPTION.
Use the 50% OFF discount code if you want to purchase it.

Hi Everyone!

I've had quite a few requests for a Sloth lately, and though it would be a lot of fun! This is a fully print-in-place design, and it includes a display Tree! It's a lot of fun to fidget with and explore different ways to pose them on the branches.

The Tree includes two separate options... a "Taller" version for most printers (which has a longer trunk to provide a little bit more hanging space), and a "Shorter" one designed to fit on smaller print beds without needing to scale it down (like on the A1-Mini).

Check out a quick Demo Video Here! 

I hope you like them!

Cheers!
Matt

Pictured Prints use the following filaments***
(reference the numbered prints in last image of the gallery)
1) Sloth: Overture Brown, iSANMATE HS Coffee, Overture Chocolate,  Cotton White
2) Sloth: Ziro Matcha, Ziro Wood Grain, Amolen Rainbow Rock, Cotton White
     Tree: Ziro Matcha, Ziro Wood Grain
3) Sloth: iSANMATE Rainbow Upgrade
     Tree: iSANMATE Rainbow Upgrade, Ziro Beach
4) Sloth: Ziro Dreamy Dusk
     Tree: Polymaker Grey/Orange dual extrusion


3D PRINTING SETTINGS:

SLOTH:

  • Sloth: Print-In-Place. No support needed.

  • Multicolor 3MF! (Compatible with PrusaSlicer and Bambu Studio)

  • 10%-15% Infill.

  • 3 Walls

  • This should generally scale down to about 60%-65% with full articulation, on a well calibrated printer. Your mileage may vary.

TREE:

  • Tree_Taller: Print-In-Place. No support needed. Brims may be helpful if you have adhesion issues (0.3mm brim gap recommended)

  • Tree_Shorter: Same branches, but a shortened trunk to fit on smaller print beds 

  • Multicolor 3MFs: for each Tree size (Compatible with PrusaSlicer and Bambu Studio)

  • 15% Infill.

  • 3 Walls 

  • The tree model can become more fragile when scaling down, so try to maximize the scale where possible. As a rough scaling guide, a Sloth scaled down to about 80% will still be able to grasp a 100% Tree.

I just did the Snapmaker U1 software update and I see this sloth is now part of their catalog of pre-loaded prints. So Cool!!!

Hi, I have looked on myminifactroy to get the updated tree and it is not there in March or April. I can see a Tortoise in March. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Hmm, the Sloth should be in there for both of those months. I removed and re-added it to those shares, so hopefully that forces it to update and show up.

Is he still available or did I miss it ?

It’s no longer active on Patreon, but it is in your March and April archive that was sent to you via MyMiniFactory share invite. I just resent the April share to you. Check your private messages here for more details on that. I send them out at the end of every month.

I'm obsessed with this updated tree. I printed 5 of them with not a single clog or stop or issue. I can't remember the last time my printer hasn't given me a single issue on a print so many times in a row lol

He is adorable, I'm desperate for you to make a wombat to go with the platypus though 😁

Printed this already and love it! Thank you! I printed it one color and painted him (I’m no artist, it’s just a fun hobby) and he’s adorable! Thank you for all your designs they are always a favorite in our house!

Printed him at 140% with a .6 nozzle and I think this is my favorite item I’ve ever printed

Any one having issues printing the tree I'm on my 3rd failure atm keeps failing on top branch

SneakySmurf · March 30, 2025

Same here. I printed 4 at 85% with PolyTerra Army Brown. It knocked over 2 of the branches. Did a skip and then it did the same with a 3rd. They start wobbling too much I think. Polymaker -is- more flexible but I am a little worried to try it again.

James Rhodes · March 29, 2025

I am fairly new to 3d printing and I am wondering if we really have to color each little area to do a multi color? I thought I could just click on each section I wanted a different color color but it’s separating a lot

M
MatMire Makes · March 29, 2025

You should be need to use the paint tools at all on a prepainted 3MF file. You just assign the colors to your AMS and/or swap the colors in the filament selection area. ..

Love this so much! A little late because I had a nasty partial clog to deal with, it happens.

This is amazing!! 😍 I joined just to get access to the amazing roaring tiger & figured I would just cancel after the month was up but I think I will have to stick around. I don’t want to miss any of your designs & hopefully a GIRAFFE is in your future plans! You can really see your animator background in all of your designs! 👏🫶👌🥰

This is amazing! I've really been loving your designs lately, they're all so different and fun!

Taylor · March 29, 2025

Would be possible to print the head separately and attach it after? It would save on some filament...

D
D3D Prints · March 29, 2025

I agree with this, I commonly print multiple bodies on one plate and heads on another.
