Articulated snake with repaired head

thingiverse

This is more of an "I made one" than a remix, but I spent some time repairing the STL of the head (with makeprintable.com) and so I've included that file in case other folks find it useful. Please see laurent_despeyroux's lovely source design for the other files:http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1619667 Thanks very much Laurent for the fun design. I printed everything at 0.1mm/layer, scaled to about half the size that Laurent used. Miraculously, the tongue stayed attached when I removed the supports -- but this print is intended as a toy gift for a child and so I expect the tongue to come off quite quickly. I used the following scale for each piece: head: 255% 37 segments: from 246.5% down to 110.5%, decreasing by 3.5% between each segment tail: 107% One other note is that I printed the head at a bizarre angle: 45 degree tilt and with the top of the head facing down. This was so that I only needed supports from the bed. I originally tried it completely upside down, but the PLA was weak around the "arms" of the ball socket and it broke when I tried to insert it.
