Hi All!!

Introducing my new Hippo design! Of course, if you " want a Hippopotamus for Christmas..." it needs a little Christmas flair, so a Santa Hat version is included!

This one has a snap-fit jaw so you can open that hungry fella's mouth wide open! Here's a Demo Video that shows the assembly!

I hope you like it!
Matt

3D PRINTING SETTINGS:

• Body: Print in place

• Heads (Regular and Santa Hat versions): Snap-fit to Body using Connector Head. There is a small custom brim around the head to help with adhesion. Remove and discard it after printing

• Tail: Snap-fit to Body

• Connector: Use to connect the heads to the body.

• Multicolor 3MF files! (For PrusaSlicer, Bambu Studio, and Orca based slicers)
  - 4-Color
  - 5-Color
  - with Santa Hat 4-slot (5 colors if you swap the red to another color for the Eyes)
  - with Santa Hat 5-slot (6 colors if you swap the red) (see below for more info)

• 10% Infill (I recommend Gyroid, Crosshatch or 3D Honeycomb)

• 3 Walls. (Assuming 0.4mm nozzle. Adjust wall count to account for alternate nozzle sizes)

• This should generally scale down to about 65% with full articulation, on a well calibrated printer.
