⚠Warning⚠

Please store this model safely in environments with young children and pets, as small parts may pose a choking hazard or cause injuries. Avoid applying strong force, as it may damage the model and create hazardous fragments. After 3D printing, keep the model in a secure location out of reach of children and pets. Follow these precautions for safe use.

 

Do not scale the crab any smaller otherwise the connections will no longer work!

 

If you apply too much force to the legs they may break because the connections are very small!

 

Please be careful when removing the crab from the print bed!

 

Colors and filament I used (3 Color Version):

• PLA / Red - for the body
• PLA / Black - for the eyes
• PLA / White - for the eyes

Or decide for yourself which colors and how many you want to use!

 

When you decide to print my multicolor Pre-Sliced (3mf file) for BambuLab I would recommend printing several models at once, not just one, to reduce waste!

You can now print the crab in multiple Parts! (23.12.2024) I made a little assembly guide:

1. Press the left and the right eye into the guide and glue them on

2. Glue the inner_eye_left and right peaces on

3. Finished!
