The Penguin

Printing instructions

General information

This bust comes in two parts that need to be printed separately. A base, and a main bust piece.

FDM

This guy should be fine being printed without external supports on an FDM printer providing you have decent part cooling.

Resin

For resin printers, he comes pre-supported (by Charro Zuck !) in three different sizes. 80% (printers the size of the Elegoo Jupiter), 70% (printers the size of the Elegoo Saturn), 40% (printers the size of the Elegoo Mars2).

You’ve got a couple of options:

- Lychee Slicer Lite (.lyt) files ( what are LYT files? ) – they’re pretty handy because you get to edit the supports to fit your needs before printing. This is the recommended option. - The pre-supported and pre-hollowed .stl files. I’d be a bit cautious with these. If you’re using anti-aliasing it will apply this to the support connections and potentially weaken its structure, which can lead to print failure. If you’re feeling adventurous, the regular STL files are there for you to slice and dice as you please.
