Don’t get me wrong – I like the acrylic dinos I have. But what if you want to replace yours with a printed set? Or what if you want to print up a full extruder kit for a friend? Well, now you can! I just uploaded some designs for a printed set of dinos. Depending upon your batch you may have Big/Little dinos or Weird/Big dinos. These should work in place of either, assuming that the placement of the bolt holes in the Z stage haven’t changed. 1
I’ve uploaded the sketchup files to make it easy to play with the designs. As I was mocking these up I was tempted to turn them into bunnies instead of dinos. Or to give the dinos some more features. Since I was so torn about which route to take I decided to upload the bland models and let others embellish if they want.
So, print up printstruder and a few dinos for an authentic fully printed printruder.
Update: Try out Zaggo’s printed dinos instead. His is a much cleaner more elegant design.
