Articulated Spotted Stingray | Flexi Ocean Animal

Meet the Articulated Spotted Stingray!

Dive into 3D printing with this cute and flexible Stingray model. Designed to be fully articulated, this ocean friend wiggles and moves just like the real thing!

 

It features a "print-in-place" design, meaning the joints are printed directly interlocked—no assembly required. The model in the photos showcases a spotted pattern, making it a perfect project for multicolor printers (like Bambu Lab AMS).

 

✨ Key Features:

• Fully Articulated: Flexible wings and tail for satisfying movement.
• Print-in-Place: No assembly needed. Just take it off the build plate and play!
• Support-Free: Designed to print without any supports (saves material and time).
• Multicolor Ready: The spots are separate shells/bodies, making it easy to color in the slicer for AMS users.

🖨️ Printing Recommendations:

• Material: PLA, PETG, or PLA Silk for a shiny finish.
• Layer Height: 0.2mm (Standard) works great.
• Infill: 10-15% Gyroid or Grid.
• Walls: 2 or 3 walls.
• Adhesion: A clean build plate is usually enough. If you have adhesion issues with small links, a brim is recommended.

🎨 Coloring: If you are using Bambu Studio, simply use the "Fill" tool or select the separate spot objects to apply a contrasting color (like black on blue, as shown in the pictures).

 

Happy Printing! If you like this model, please leave a generic thumbs up and share your make!
