Build-A-Baby Turtle! Now you can create your own baby turtle with a single-color printer! Two sets of eyes are painted for those who have a multicolor printer as well.

These make really fun purge items for multicolor prints, also.

Please read the printing recommendations.

DO NOT DOWNSIZE - It is as small as it can be, or the joint connector pieces will fuse.

If you have elephant foot issues, you may need to adjust. I would print the shell or an eye to test.

Painted 3mf is included. Verify settings; what works for me may not necessarily be the correct setting for your printer. Verify flushing volumes. Make sure to start a new project.

You may need supports under the eye sockets if you make XL plate size baby turtle bases.

Assembly: Everything pops on -The eyes must be glued to ensure they are permanently placed.

There is a slight curve on the front of the turtle's shell. It shouldn't take too much force to pop on, but different filaments expand differently.

Cloud assembly: Please look at the picture for reference. As you are looking at the turtle, the star on the right slot opens to the front, and the star on the left slot opens to the back. They get slightly turned to pop in place.

Printing recommendations: Slow down the initial layer speeds to 20 - (Shown in picture) Reduce Acceleration - (See picture) Slower acceleration = smoother looking prints .20 layer height Print in place, no support required 3 walls - 15% infill Allow the plate to cool before removing the prints. Reduce acceleration and adjust overhang speeds as needed

Filaments: Polymaker Polychroma - Matte PLA Rainbow Polymaker PLA- Cold White Protopasta - Always Sunny Protopasta - Moonstruck White Protopasta - Empire Strikes Black P Protopasta - Nebula Rainbow Protopasta - Golddust Transluscent Protopasta - Lukes Proton Purple
