Hi All!!

Introducing my new Hippo design! Of course, if you " want a Hippopotamus for Christmas..." it needs a little Christmas flair, so a Santa Hat version is included!This one has a snap-fit jaw so you can open that hungry fella's mouth wide open! Here's a Demo Video that shows the assembly!

I hope you like it!Matt

Body: Print in place

Heads (Regular and Santa Hat versions): Snap-fit to Body using Connector Head. There is a small custom brim around the head to help with adhesion. Remove and discard it after printing

Tail: Snap-fit to Body

Connector: Use to connect the heads to the body.

Multicolor 3MF files! (For PrusaSlicer, Bambu Studio, and Orca based slicers)- 4-Color- 5-Color- with Santa Hat 4-slot (5 colors if you swap the red to another color for the Eyes)- with Santa Hat 5-slot (6 colors if you swap the red) (see below for more info)

10% Infill (I recommend Gyroid, Crosshatch or 3D Honeycomb)

3 Walls. (Assuming 0.4mm nozzle. Adjust wall count to account for alternate nozzle sizes)

This should generally scale down to about 65% with full articulation, on a well calibrated printer.

Adorable as usual!! You make the finest animals on the planet! However, I do prefer your "old style" connector better. Stronger, cleaner, easier for my hands. But that is just me. Thank you!
