| About me: | Hi there! I'm a 3D printing enthusiast with over a decade of hands-on experience, and my passion for this innovative technology hasn't waned a bit. My designs are born from inspiration and brought to life through extensive testing and refinement. Whether it's a whimsical fantasy piece or a practical everyday item, if an idea sparks my interest, I'll turn it into reality. I hope you'll find joy and utility in my creations, just as I do in designing them. Happy printing! |

Printing settings
All files are in STL to print without any support and already in the best orientation to print.
Most parts can be printed with your standard 0.2mm layer config. In the pictures, they were printed using 3 walls and the new lightning infill for almost everything.
The tentacles can be printed in vase/spiral mode, to avoid the seam line, they have a custom easy-to-remove brim.
Parts grouped by the colors used in the pictures:
Pink (or your jellyfish chosen color)

DomeRing.stl
CenterGear.stl
GearsBase.stl
8 x ExternalGear.stl
8 x ExternalTentacle.stl (vase/spiralmode)

Assembling
Tips
- Check all the connections, screwing and gaps before assembling, the parts must play freely.
- For the gears use the seam line "aligned" on Prusa Slicer and activate the option “hide Seam” on Cura, the gears work better this way. Other parts can have the seam aligned back.
- For the tentacles you can use the option to print them individually (sequential printing), I recommend print some extra because they can break easily.
- The dome does not need supports, it have some bridge but have a gap to compensate bad bridging.
- Don't use the elephant foot compensation on the dome and the dome ring or you will have some bed adhesion problems, actually all parts except the axles already have some compensation. But even the axles can handle a bit of pressure on the first layer.
