Cute mini Octopus, articulated and printed without additional supports.
It's designed so it can be printed at once. No assembly or supports required.
Many different STL files, with straight or spiral tentacles, both with and without included support.
UPDATE!! v6 fixes some mesh errors, improves bed adhesion, and adds the replaceable tentacle and the HUGE octopus print.
To print the small replaceable tentacle, be sure to enable "print thin walls" in the slicer. No need for additional supports. Settings are the same as the Octopus 2.0 tentacle replacement video
To print the HUGE tentacle, manual supports are needed in the opened link.
Big Octopus, Scaled up around 350%, I don't remember exactly how much. Normal scale flexi rex, https://github.com/DrLex0/print3D-FlexiRex, for scale. Also there is a giant flexi rex off to the side.
Having difficulty getting the nose to print properly. I have adjusted printer settings for a better quality print, but the bottom of the nose ends up falling and being a mess every time. Advice? Using a Fokoos Odin 5.

add a support
Can I rescale this without it screwing up?
Thank you,
Do you mind if I print and sell these? (Please?)
I am having trouble having this particular model sticking to my print bed.
Use a glue stick and apply a thin layer of glue on the print bed right before you start printing.
Thanks!
or just select "Raft" under "build plate adhesion", it will print a small plastic platform under your print
that will stop it articulating ( i think )
