Steampunk Wasp 3D Принт Модель

Steampunk Wasp features a print in place, support free, body with folding and latching leg joints and a set of ***gs (minimal supports required) which snap fit onto the body.

The finished model is articulated at hips, knees, head and base of ***gs.

Alternatively there is static .stl of a posed body  single object provided (***gs are still separate)

The articulated model has a maximum print footprint of approx. 198 x 198 mm, making it compatible with many FDM printers.
The static posed model version is fully scalable and suitable for resin printing.

Files included:
.3mf files in mono colour (approx. 9hour print time total), 2 colour (approx. 13 hour print time total) and 4 colour versions (approx. 45 hour print time total). [all based on 0.08mm layer height, high quality setting on Bambu P1P.]
.stl files for all parts
Static standing pose .stl (scalable)

There is also an alternative ***g design which is closed on one face, the idea being that a layer of transparent material can be used to give ***g see through closed structure.

For best results use 0.08mm layer height and 'high quality' setting. (this model will really benefit from using your printers best quality setting)

The knee joints can sometimes be a point of failure when doing final assembly, especially if using Silk PLA which can be brittle once fully cooled; I recommend:
Counter fle***g the knee joints to free them up before moving them into latch position
Try supporting the joint with your hands on both sides when fle***g.
I have found that with silk PLA (mostly likely to cause a problem) if you flex the joints when the model is freshly printed and retains some residual heat it is less brittle.
