🕑 Added 2025-03-28 22:03:07 +0000 UTCGetting ready for summer beach time!
I hope you all enjoy my latest addition to the tattooed collection. These little crustaceans make a pretty cute pair 😍
There are 2 versions with STL and 3MF options:
- Standard
- Captured Magnet
For the Captured magnets use 6x2 magnets HERE
*For those of you that have never tried captured magnets, I made a quick tutorial.
(The tutorial is for Bambu Slicer, but should translate to other slicers.)

Print tips and Info:
STL and 3MF files are included. * If you use the 3mf file, please remember that it is a painted project file for your convenience. You must check your material/printer/settings to make sure it works correctly for your printing project.
I print with, 15% infill/gyroid, .12 or .16 layer height for quality.
As usual, make sure you have good adhesion. A glue stick works or I have switched to using on all my machines... a BIQU Cryopgrip Frostbite adhesion plate.
Gradient PLA works well with this model: I have a comprehensive list of Filament I use here: Amazon List

I printed one in a red filament and loved the model but not really crazy about the color, I have this different pink and a purple I think it would look great with! I love it!

My wife & daughters have been begging me to find a cool hermit crab print for them, and up until now, there were no decent ones to be found. Well, sir, you have been promoted to HERO level by them!! All 3 women were blown away and of course, now I have to stop the printers and get started on Hermit Crabs for them immediately!! You nailed these and I thank you for your efforts!!!!
