Introducing a little something for all you viper lovers out there, a Rattlesnake!  This model has a few new design features that I'm really excited about.  In addition to the extension Links you all know from the Ball Python, the Rattlesnake also features a hinged jaw, and a working rattle!  Small print-in-place beads fall free inside the rattle, and provide a very satisfying sensory fidget.It's pretty simple, but here's a little assembly video: https://youtu.be/5F43Vr5wi4AI hope you enjoy!!Matt

Pictured Model was printed in these filaments...  Body is Ziro Matcha***Eyes, Teeth and Rattle is Ziro Wood Grain***

3D PRINTING SETTINGS

Body (Front and Rear): Print-In-Place.  (I have not yet created a Built-in Brim version of the body, so you may need to generate one if you're having adhesion problems.  Use a brim gap of around 0.25mm to aid in brim removal.)

Head Top: Snap-Fit to Head Bottom. Pre-Supported!

Head Bottom: Snap-Fit to the Body Front. Pre-Supported!

Rattle: Separate so it can be printed in a different color.  Snap-Fit to Body Rear.  If the rattle beads do not print free from the surrounding material, you can use a pointed object, like a pen, to push them into the rattle.  Print-in-place.

Body Extend Link:  Print-in-place.

Body (Front and Rear) Aligned: Body links are all in a straight line.  Gives more options for people with belt or large build volume printers.

Body Rear wRattle & Body Rear wRattle Aligned: Rattle is pre-attached to the body, if you aren't interested in printing it separately.

10% Infill.

3 Walls.

This has been test printed as low as 70% with full articulation and working rattle!

Here is a quick video showing the easiest method for snap-fitting the head onto the body: https://youtu.be/DWsYu2BY7ow

Eli malk

is there a limit on how many extension links I could add?

matmire_makes

Nope! Some people have made them 6-7 feet long!

Jeremy P

just until you run out of filament haha

David Long

Just finished him in the Zito Macha as well. 3 additional segments. Bambu painted teeth red. Long print but man he's awesome...

Connie Clinton

If I was to use glass eyes what size would I need for the full size 100% and what size for the 70% please?

Timothy Heidecker

Omg i was just trying to decide what to print next! LOVE IT!!!!

Makers Ace

Just in time! I'm trying to get snakes printed for when I sell at my local Repticon in a few weeks, excited for this!

Nikola Vonfulton

This is perfect for my new filament I got for Christmas

Lynsie Burgtorf

YESS!!! But how did you get the tail, eyes and fangs in a different color?

John Jerde

What kind/color of filament is that?

RavenHuff Acres

This is great!! Thanks!! Can’t wait to print it!

matmire_makes

The it's two filaments. The green is Ziro Matcha and the brown is Ziro Woodgrain. I used my multi-color printer.

John Jerde

Ah. Okay. Looks awesome.

Shayla Anthony

and now I need more Carbon X1's because they are all busy, lol. The color is amazing.

matmire_makes

Lol. We all could use more Carbon X1s, haha! (This was my first multicolor print with it. So Fun!)

Leigh Johnson

Love it, I actually used to be a zookeeper and looked after western diamond back rattlesnakes :O Thankyou for the 2 part head, it will make painting teeth and tongue soo much easier :)

matmire_makes

Woah! That's cool. My only run-in with a rattler was at a golf course here in SoCal. I nearly stepped on an adolescent. That could have been bad!

Leigh Johnson

many more cute reptiles you could do too - pink or blue tongued skink and jacksons chameleon to add to the list please :)

Chris (CAV217)

Is this a multi color file? I have the x1 carbon as well.

matmire_makes

It’s not. It’s just the STLs. I had to do some updates to the file after I printed this one, which breaks the multicolor painting. The good news is, it was very easy to paint with (mostly) the fill tool!

Jason

Broooooooo!

Don Fief (aka SwagDad)

I would print so much faster in color if the rattle was a separate piece that could be snapped on... (hint?)

Timothy Heidecker

I was half right😄 i thought the green was matcha i was just trying to figure out the brown lol.

Bryodiversity

I second the blue-tongued skink! Especially if you could find a way to make the mouth open and the tongue stick out. :D

R&B Creations

I agree with Don, we really need a snap on rattle for us poors without Bambus lol

Nikola Vonfulton

Any chance you could post a link to the filament you used when you print these?

3DNestCZ

Looks awesome man!

Wayne Michael Rogers

Even With the Bambus, it takes a ton of extra print time and wasted filament to do multicolor. Extra thought to model design and print orientation can go a long way to mitigate that.

Jerry VdV

Just wow. Is there a way to separate the rattler (for printing) and attach it later?

SubSector3d

Prints beautifully - Love it!

John Jerde

Do I need to use the body extend link to connect the front to rear?

matmire_makes

Nope! The front and rear connect directly. The extensions just allow you to make them longer if you want.

John Jerde

K. That’s what I thought.

Jocelyn Kessinger

I just finished printing my first copy of this guy today and I absolutely love him! This rattle would make an excellent keychain fidget...just saying lol

Jerry VdV

And maybe, just maybe (as a fellow Bambu user looking at their waste), have a snap in tongue?

Mike Sprague

is there any advantage/disadvantage to printing the straight vs curved versions?

matmire_makes

The straight just helps if you have a belt printer or gives people with large printers more layout options. Most people should use the curved.

Ghoulie Cuties

Just finished the v1 with painted eyes and tail - the head supports snapped away perfectly. This model is top notch, thanks!!

troy hebert

printed two now and they are perfect

Jocelyn Kessinger

Would you be willing to share your Bambu settings? I have an X1C on the way and I am so excited to print this on it!

Nikola Vonfulton

This print is awesome. Any chance we could get one with a cowboy hat on 🤠

Timothy

Just the reg profile will print it about the same as long as you use the Bambu Slicer

matmire_makes

What Timothy said. I'm pretty new to the X1 too. I basically am still using default settings, except switching to 3 Walls and 10% Gyroid infill.

Jeff Herrmann

I bet she wants the part settings like I do for our Bambu's lol. Their slicer isn't the easiest to do a good paint job lol

Rochelle A

What is the full length of the assembled rattlesnake printed at 100%?

matmire_makes

With no added extensions, it's about 25". Each extension adds about 1".
