Ender Dragon

large_preview_MMF-EnderDragon-Files-Back

The original files had manifold errors. I ran those files through https://3d-print.jomatik.de/en/index.php to correct and reuploaded them. I don’t know if the manifold errors would cause print failures but Cura complained about them.

My son and I ended up using 14 guage solid core coated eletctrical wire for the body and 16 guage uncoated wire for the wings. This thing is huge (almost 2 ft from nose to tail) with the 7 neck vertabrae and 13 tail vertabrae. I would probably try scaling it down if we printed it again.

The clips on the legs that you push into the holes on the body were very fragile. 2 broke when we tried to insert them. The other two were fine. They still loosely stayed in but we are re-printing them to make the dragon more sturdy. We used 15% infill and may tweak those settings next next time to see if helps.
