Since The Giant Skeli Frog was such a hit, I wanted to do it again with this Model.

...and just like last time, to those brave souls who print this, please SEND ME PHOTOS. I will post them here and on socials for everyone to enjoy. Email to FlexiFactory@gmail.com  (photos with someone holding it would show scale the best), or add to the discord in the #photos tab.

Also Like last time, I haven't yet printed it Giant myself. I tested it small to make sure the glue joints worked, so I'm not too worried (just a little worried)🤞😁

I recommend a single color matte filament. If you use a gradient, it will look a little strange because the gradients won't match up with the different parts. Or just use different colors, then glue and spray paint.

If you are maxing out your build plate, make sure you can get every part up to size before you begin printing.

Since I rely on bridging, I feel at larger sizes there might be a little sagging on the underside of the ribs, but It should be minimal.

For the body, choose the eye, or no-eye version.

I find super glue always works best, just be careful not to glue it to the table. 😉

I'm looking forward to seeing your Awesome Giant Pteranodons!

-Dan*** I will be providing the download link at the bottom of each post. It appears Patreon has been making changes and removed all of my fun little photo bullets :( So until it gets resolved, please follow the link here: DOWNLOADS

Giant prints are the BEST!!!!

Josh Myers

Tossing on my printers tonight

Matthew Davies

Count me in. I done the frog so will absolutely do this too

Josh Myers

is there a need for supports

Matthew Davies

looks like i can go 350% so will order some filament and get on this for sure

Brandon Ryan

I’m looking forward to this one. I would love to see all of the skeletons like this 😁

Adam Jones

AWESOME!!! Thanks for sharing with us!!!

Dan

There should not be

CLR Designs

Love it. 600% sounds good. Time to fire up my Elegoo Neptune 3 max. Can only fit 500%. Darn. Lol

Yep its Art

Luminescent one started. This should be awesome

PocketPrints 3D

So what your saying is I now have a new large print to do..... Yay! Tomorrow project!

Jason Weems

I am just on my phone not near a computer to check it out in a slicer, (well my eyes don't like the mobile slicers, lol) is that plate with the legs 3 separate pieces?

Darren Gerbrandt

I have a Bone White filament that I think will work for this 🤔

Tiffani

Started one! I’m excited to see how this turns out!

Wayne

Will add this to the weekend printing for sure!

Jeremy Manning

Unfortunately my Bambu’s are tied up for a week but to save on time & get pics submitted I’m gonna one shot it at 250% on my Neptune 3 max. Will look good pictured with my 300% mech dragon

Jeremy Manning

One shot 300% is just a hair too big as well. Womp womp

Sp00k

added to the list. how can i get the frog? would like to do that too

MM

Time to fire up the OrangeStorm :)

Dan

Large frog is part of the Out of the Vault Skeleton frog. So if you have that one, it is included for you. Or $3.99 out of the vault if you were not a member when that released.

Dan

I have dabbled with that one. Have not quite figured it out yet. But will add if I do :)

Dan

Yes. 3 pieces on that plate. I could only scale to 300% on my machines. Some machines will go larger :)

Sp00k

Joined in Dec. Not sure where vault is. Happy to purchase if it’s not available to me. Thanks for the reply

Jason Weems

Yea I was just making sure it looked like it. I was thinking about slightly modifing in the slicer with pegs and peg holes maybe to try and dry fit together, if thats ok. IF I get it to print lol. Should be fine I plan on printing on my K1M it's dialed in pretty well.

Dan

That was included in October of 2024 so you would have received it as part of the skeleton frog release. If you didn't snag the downloads from the patrons server, you can go to the top pinned post here under archives and it explains how to redeem those links that I send on the last day of each month:-) no reason to pay for it again

Ed

Did I read correctly that you cannot use a typical outlet and that you need a higher voltage to use it? I was going to buy one but read you need a 220 outlet.

Ed

This is Excellent timing!! We have a show on Saturday and this will be the centerpiece. Should be done in 12 hours. The perks of a printer farm.

Selina Zuehlsdorff

I am beyond excited for this one. Thank you. These are the best

Dan

Nope :)

Chubby101

It’s on the build plates of my 2 x A1s right now. Soooooo need this to go with my frog. Any chance of an XL Steggie at some point, oh and a Triceratops. Actually, let’s just have em all 😂😂😂

Andy Niemer

Printing the XL at 400% right now on my Neptune 4 Max! Gonna make a super massive Pteranodon!

MM

You can use a normal outlet however you need something with 20AMPS at least. It is a bit of a beast to be honest and i need to finish my enclosure around it

Lucy Hart

Just got tracking for my Kobra 3 Max... this might need to be my first HUGE print

dkev

A assume the legs and wings glue on?

Karl

My biggest printer is my Kobra 2 plus so I can't quite go ridiculous but each part will be printed at 375%... hopefully all goes well as the slicer was crying about floating regions after a certain scale. Should have it done in a few days.

Jacque Prince

I have the one arm wing printed , printing the other side do they have to be glued on? I thought they would be a plug and play and be more movable!

Dan

I use generic super glue.

Dan

Oh no, this is just split to glue. I cannot make those split parts movable. Once you put it together though, it will be just as flexible as the original model. The cuts are at static places. That way it stands and the wings move Etc just the same way

Dan

Yes, that is listed in the post but I see there been several questions about glue:-) My extra large versions are just cut on the static parts, so they need to be glued together. And then it will function like the small version, articulated.

Chris Browning

just signed up for this giant! I am sending to my printers now. Can the giant frog be purchased?

Chris Browning

disregard I found it and purchased with the code! thank you!

csr

You know what would be really cool is if the jaw would articulate. That would be neat on the frog also. I did print the frog in glow in the dark green at 300% and 150%. I think that they are awesome!!!

csr

Sorry, I guess that the jaw does articulate. I need to print this too.

Dan

The head has two parts like the original. Eye or no eye version.

Christina Rynkowski

love it! cant wait to print it! keep up the awesome work!

lois

I cannot find a link to your discord

Jacque Prince

I have pics ready but won’t let me post them

Dan

It shouldn't matter. All super glue is basically the same unless you prefer the gel which doesn't run as much. But I just use the cheap runny stuff

Kickin' Custom Creations

Really enjoy printed this my grandson always loves your prints he is my tester. He does keep asking for a giant Raptor or a t-Rex

Mast3rj3diyoda

ok ok Dan on the Ender 5 Max i can scale to 475%... will start this tomorrow

Franz Resch

Ist fertig mit noch kleben foto volgt.

Dan

This website doesn't allow them to be posted so you need to add to the Discord photos or send an email to flexifactory@gmail.com please

Dan

In your settings tab under apps you will be able to log in through there so it can assign the patreon bot as a member.

Nick North

I love it. 250 scale 36 hours. Turned out great.

Grimm

I dropped this down to 150%, .16 layers on a cool plate. It was great. Glued up perfect, and is in the hands of a coworker's child at the moment. I'm going to do it again at 300, 250, and 200 just for kicks. I'll take photos this time.

Brian Hilden

I just finished mine at 300% , would love to see more dinosaurs to stain at 300%

acarp1638

currently printing at 225% thats the biggest the nest will fit on my printer

Missi

I have a Neptune 4 max and did this at an additional 400%. It's massive. Only took 4 days to print!

Dan

No supports ever needed :)

acarp1638

I remembered wrong lol i printed it at 235% and one at 100% for a baby. I emailed pics

Matthew Davies

How do I send images to you? I have uploaded to insta but want to send it over to you. I built at 350%

Dan

Flexifactory@gmail.com Thank you!

Dawn Lafleur

I printed mine at 300% turned out with no supports and a nest at 225% I am going to print speckled eggs also, will send pictures later.

Magdalena Woźnicka

Flexi Factory, please more like this project on this size Dino. XL is amazing.

Connie Lanier

Just finished one for my great grandson. I had to reduce it to 270% because of my bed size. He loves it. It will go next to his raptor.

Dan

All downloads are zipped per design in the download link below. You just need to extract the files labeled pteranodon and you will see the different versions.

Brant Dunlap

I had this download and seems to be lost moving to my hard drive, where can I re-download it?

Mike Sprague

what is the scale of this version? If someone wanted to print the base, how big does it need to be?

Dan

When you open the 3mf you'll see the size of the parts. You would just need to scale the stand identically. The problem here is that the stand is much larger and does not fit on an x1c plate as shown above. You would simply add the base to whichever machine you're using and maximize it on the plate, and then reduce the xl version to match that stand.

Kickin' Custom Creations

I really like like the giants skeletons the Frog has been the best my grandson has a blast with it, He has asked about a T-rex one any chance that is in the future?

Dan

I do hope to add the extra large versions of all few designs. They will be included and not have to be paid for again. Just trying to find the time and decide which ones to do :-) Thank you for your feedback

Dan

You can do it! I've seen them as high as about 700%!!!

Brant Dunlap

Do you glue the head on this model?

Dan

The head pops on, but if you make it XL then you will have to glue the body parts together

Natascha Leszinski

Excuse me if I'm being too stupid, but can you please tell me where I can find the file? Best regards, Natascha
