Articulated Lobster – Fun, Poseable

Bring a touch of the ocean to your 3D printing collection with this articulated lobster design! Perfect for hobbyists, collectors, or anyone looking for a unique, poseable, and functional model. Minimal support usage on model. Fully articulated tail that curls in your hand, and claws that move side to side. 

Material

PLA

Layer height

Infill

Support

There is painted manual tree support done by me on model. Printing without support will not work for the head, and will have issues with the overhang on front face. I added what I felt was necessary support for the first shell and linkage. Move the head up and down to get excess support material from linkage and it should fall out smoothly. 

Scaling

Scaling has not been tested. I do not advise scaling the model below the size tested because the arms have very small claws. The smaller you make the model, the more difficult your adhesion will be. 

More models to come in the future! I hope you enjoy!
