NEW DESIGN: Snake the flexi toy (#52) UPDATED!
UPDATED 06.09.2024!
Somehow we've missed the issue in the 3mf file in the folder 2 (the Snake with solid body and eyes). Now it's fixed. Please, redownload the 'v3' zip archive and replace the folder 2. We're really sorry about it and hope it didn't cause any big problems.
We intended to release this a week ago, but here it is now! Introducing a Snake the flexi toy: our first long design, measuring 30 cm in length and consisting of 21 parts (including the head).
Originally, we used the Grass Snake as our reference but painted it to resemble a Mangrove Snake.
We’ve prepared several variations for you:
Eyes: These can be included with the head or printed separately.
Heads: The heads can be solid with the body as one piece or printed separately and attached using a special connector.
Body: The body can be shaped straight or curved for better fitting on the build plate. With these options, you can print one snake using a Bambu A1 mini (180x180 mm) or three snakes on a standard 256x256 mm plate!
Pre-painted 3MF files are included.
We kindly ask that you do not share the files with others. Please respect our work and efforts.
Thank you!
And we'd like to hear your feedback on the Snake )
Hope you'll like it!
With love and hugs 💜💜💜
Svetlana and Dmitry

How much down can I scale this print? I don't like big snakes, but this one looks like a good one to print small.
As we saw in the slicer, it can be printed even at 50% but we haven't tested it yet. We tried to print the full color version of the snake at 70% scale but while printing extruder was clogged and after cleaning we got a 'Cutter is stuck' error. So now the only Bambu printer is out of service temporary ( Ordered A1 with AMS light and waiting for the replacement to fix the P1S. The minimum we printed was 85%. But you can try to print the snake at 70% in solid color as a test )
Good morning! Looks like all the files were updated except the folder 2 file (one piece with inserted eyes). If we could please get that one updated for those that want to print the whole things together that would be awesome!!!
Good evening (it's evening here)! Thanks for your request ) There is no such an issue with the snake in the folder 2. At least we can't see it in the Prusa and Bambu Slicers. If you have any problem with the whole snake in the folder 2, please let us know! Because we can't see any problem with it. I uploaded screenshots from my Prusa and Bambu slicers here https://drive.google.com/file/d/10pTspKJs0V5j1RU1K09gmAfoiC0WA1dw/view?usp=sharing
What size are the eyes inserts 6mm ?
Sorry, I'm not sure that I understood your question. Could you ask a little more detailed question, give me more details?
Hi. The rounded model has two links connected in the middle. Because of this, the model does not bend properly. Please check it out.
Hi Elena, thank you for letting us know that! And we're really sorry that we've missed that issue. Now it's fixed and you can redownload the updated archive. Sorry once again!
My daughter was just asking me for a snake and I'm so excited to surprise her with one 🥰
love this little guy
