Ocean Motion: Flexi Starfish!

January 8, 2025
Description
Dive into Ocean Motion with the Starfish!
This fully articulated starfish is ready to wiggle its five arms in every direction! Designed with the same chain-like connections as the stingray, it’s a joy to print and even more fun to play with. Want a minimalist look? This version skips the face for a clean, classic starfish vibe!
Key Features:
- Fully Articulated Arms: All five arms can move freely thanks to clever 3D-printed fabric-style joints.
- Simple & Fun: Easy to print and no supports needed!
- Flexible or Stiff: Go with standard PLA for strong joints or experiment with PLA Silk for a shiny finish—but handle with care, as silk is more fragile.
Print Tips:
- Use a 0.2mm layer height to ensure smooth and functional joints.
- Ensure good bed adhesion—glue stick is your best friend here!
- This model has small, delicate parts, so take your time and check those connections.
Bring a touch of ocean magic to your 3D printing projects with this playful starfish!
