Exclusive: MMMini Frogs!!
*** THIS FILE IS NO LONGER INCLUDED FREE WITH SUBSCRIPTION.
Members can purchase it once re-released, according to this Schedule.
Hi All!
This is one I've been thinking about for a long time, the MMMini Frog!!
I'm including 3 different multicolor patterns, which add tons of variety to the possible color and style variations you can come up with! There's Basic Frog pattern (with both vertical and horizontal pupil options), a Tree Frog pattern, and a Poison Dart Frog pattern! I can't wait to see what kinds of fun color combos you all come up with.
Also, a reminder that you can use the slicer's paint Fill tool too easily create alternative color combinations/variants. I used this method to change up a few of my Poison Dart Frog samples by combining the leg pattern and body pattern into one color (the yellow and the agua/blue dart frogs) Check out this tutorial video to see how!
Add Magnets! These have a magnet cavity inside the body so that you can add a pause command and drop one in while printing. For info on how to do that, see the PDF document in the download.
This mini is 100% print-in-place, and requires no supports. Its a quick and easy print that scales down very well. I've included both regular and keychain versions.
Check out a little preview video HERE.
Hope you like them!
Matt

Is there a way to get them without the Magnets hole. When I take them off the plate it's leaving a hole underneath
Please excuse my newbie question but with such beautifully colored frogs, isn’t that gonna be a lot of waste poop and a long time to print? Just curious thank you
What size magnets do I need to purchase ?
10x3mm. There is a link in the post above and also in the download’s included PDF guide
is there a version without the magnet hole? Its very weak in that area if you dont want to add a magnet
can we get an adorable beaver?
i thought i'd save a few dollars and get 10x2 rather than 10x2.3 magnets.... i don't know if that's the major difference, but the frogs at 100% are extremely heavy and immediately fell off the fridge, crashed on the floor and it's leg popped off. I wish it wasn't so dense so the magnets would work but at the same time i wish it was more dense for durability... If there was a solid version included (with no magnet holes) i could easily scale it down a little and try out a smaller magnet size to see if that works
Magnets come in different grades. You generally want N42 as a starter point and N52's are extremely strong. Most magnets on amazon are below N42 strength and are very weak. I used N52's in these and they can hold a piece of cardboard to my fridge. Not sure if my link will work but heres the basics: https://www.kjmagnetics.com/blog/magnet-grade?srsltid=AfmBOoquLHiVdDW-NDD8wz3bJZOGBZcexp9QzYOzm6YJvERkDR5-8mBU
These are so cute! I want to print so many variations!! However if I adjust the size then the magnet holes become problematic.... Are you able to release them without the magnet hole additions so I can insert my own magnet size with the adjustments in resizing
can you use the same magnets from the spider?
Yup! Same magnets.
These are amazing! Now the hard part... deciding what type of frog(s) and whoch colors to do first.
These are outstanding. Look forward to printing all of them!
So funny I was just saying to my wife it would be soo cool to get the frog as the mini, woke up this morning and boom, great work Matt they look phenomenal
hahaha. magic!
Can you use 10x3mm magnets in these and the spiders? Or do I need to order the ones you have linked?
I have the same question. I believe they will work, but would like the creator to confirm. The ones linked for the spider model are 10 x 2.6mm and the one linked in this model are 10 x 2.3mm. I opened one of the Bambu Labs versions of this model and sliced it and it shows a 3mm high open cylinder for the magnet. Would be really nice to just use the same exact size magnet in all of these designs.
Do you know of any issues with the x1c pulling magnets out when it’s printing as I have just checked and the print head will Attack the magnet and not sure if when trying to print over the magnet if it will pull the magnet up and out ? Or do you put a bit of glue in then the magnet?
It should not. The Bambu printers have a magnetic bed which should pull the magnets down and keep them securely seated. I’ve printed a bunch of all of my magnet designs on the X1C, A1-Mini, and H2D and never had the extruder lift a magnet out.
Thank you, so cute, I fell in love with your work, I 'm gonna print them all. Just bought my first printer last week. Greetings from Belgium
