Update Report – Mosasaurus
Date: 7/30/2025
Purpose: Fixes for scaling issues above 100% during 3D printing
Overview
An update was made to Mosasaurus after identifying printing issues at scales larger than 100%. Improvements focus on first layer adhesion, part stability, and proper fit between key components.
We thank Gregg Adventure for reporting these issues.We also invite all patrons to visit his YouTube channel, where he shares valuable 3D printing content, as well as his Patreon to support his work:

Only the following parts were modified:
1. LowerTeeth
2. UpperTeeth
3. LowerNeck
4. LowerJaw
Details of Changes
1. LowerTeeth and UpperTeeth
Issue:
At larger scales, the first printed layer exhibited small gaps, compromising bed adhesion.
Fix:
Adjusted the geometry to remove imperfections and ensure a solid, continuous first layer.
2. LowerNeck
Issue:
The part experienced drooping or warping at the bottom when printed at increased scale.
Fix:
Modified the angle to improve print stability and eliminate the need for supports.
3. LowerJaw
Issue:
The contact surface for the lower teeth was irregular due to texture errors, causing fit and bonding issues.
Fix:
Corrected and leveled the mating area for proper tooth alignment and adhesion.
Conclusion
These updates enable Mosasaurus to be reliably printed at scales above 100%, with improved first layer performance, better stability, and accurate part fit—without the need for supports in the updated sections.
