Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
🕑 Added 2019-12-09 11:32:34 +0000 UTC Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wade;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe
Here are supportless Jabberwock and Alice, inspired by the illustration from Lewis Carroll's "Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There" from 1871.
Both models are up in the repository (new address!), and Alice is available for all on Thingiverse.
I'm struggling a bit with my new PLA, it definitely needs higher temperature (model printed at 190 crumbled like corned puff, these above were printed at 205-210). Jabberwocky takes just under 10 hours to print at 0.12mm layer height on the Fat Dragon Games Cura profile.
Coming up next: bandits.

190 worked well for my previous filament, reduced stringing and had better results with thin parts, the prints were a bit elastic so they didn't break easily. The one I have now needs at least 205 C to be usable, and there are still some extrusion problems here and there. It seems okay at 210-215, but at 215 stringing is kicking in - yet it is easy to remove. Sadly, I cannot say what the manufacturer is, because they were only labelled with the store logo I bought them from (bought them from 2 different places), but they're definitely obscure brands for you. I still need to do a temperature tower test, this should be done with every new spool.
What PLA were you using that was crumbling? Also, do you normally print PLA at 190? I have a stock CR-10S, and I use Hatchbox PLA and usually print at 200 (bed at 60). Is there a benefit to a lower temp, or is that just what works for you?
