Articulated dragon STL file for a flexible 8 part dragon that prints already linked, made for dragon fans and desk toy lovers with a 3D printer. The 8 parts and 7 joints are built to print in place, so there is nothing to assemble.

What You Get

• 2 files: articulated-dragon-print-in-place.stl and articulated-dragon-print-in-place-print-settings.pdf (1 page of print settings).
• The STL is in millimetres. Model size: 205 x 140 x 10.9 mm.
• 8 parts and 7 joints, each joint designed to turn 8 degrees.
• Checked in software: watertight, manifold, thinnest wall 1.29 mm, clearance between moving parts 0.44 mm.

Print Settings

• Designed for PLA or PETG, 0.2 mm layers, 3 walls, 15 percent infill, no supports, no brim, 0.4 mm nozzle.
• Bed size needed: 210 x 145 mm or larger.
• Tip: Print it in one go: the 8 parts and 7 joints come off the bed already linked.
• Tip: If a joint feels stiff, bend each one gently a few times to free it.

How It Works

Instant digital download. Nothing is posted to you.

Open the STL in any slicer (Cura, PrusaSlicer, Bambu Studio, OrcaSlicer) and print it flat as it comes. Keep the scale at 100 percent or larger.
