Sorry about that. I just updated it and link didn't copy correctly. Thank you for letting me know :)
Kristi Wing
I tried to follow the link but it says "No preview available. File is in owners trash"
This is the one that I was going to ask about too!
Dan
No, it was one of my earlier public releases.
Shannon Patterson
was the alligator w/out the hat a exculsive?

What really stinks about that plan is not everyone enters the 3D printing world at the same time. For me I would love the Orca as it's a favorite animal of my daughter. However I didn't even find FF until Nov 2022. So now I'm just assed out to no fault of my own. Which just drives me away from FF. I'm a recent subscriber but I don't think I'll be hanging around long just to be part of "the cool kids club". I do like the work though.
No worries at all. I won't ever ask and glad I asked you before I did. Thanks for all you do.
Dan
I appreciate you asking first. This is a big No. Files can never be shared. That's a major Copyright violation. Unfortunately if I know this is happening, the folks involved would also be blocked and not allowed to rejoin.
Is it allowed to ask anyone to share the exclusives with me that I missed ? Do not want to do anything I am not supposed to do.

I gave one of the ants to our UPS lady today since she delivered one of our new computers. She loved it!
Dan
Sorry to hear that. Hope you're doing better?!?
Ken Newton
I had a health issue that kept me pretty much stuck in my room for a chunk of last year. I see a few models I missed, guess it's time to binge print!

I understand needing a list, maybe take down the exclusive part? Its hard to come to your page and be reminded every time what I will never get. BTW thank you for taking the time to have this discussion with me and I hope you don't feel disrespected. We absolutely love all of your files.
Dan
It is not an advertisement so much as a list of what has been made and what category they fall into. I get many messages when folks join about specific model requests or which ones can be purchased with the discount code. I feel like this is the best way to be transparent. It is a public post so folks can see it before they join and not feel "duped." With social media being uncontrollable, often people run right over and join only to find out they can't get the one model that brought them here. I believe there is value in the bonuses, discounts, ability to sell, vote and other things that I have done to show my true appreciation for patron support.

Thanks for your response, the only thing I would say is please take down the post since its unfair to advertise files that will never be released again.
Dan
I know, putting on the top of the page was tough. But I get hundreds of messages monthly about it, and I want to make sure everyone has the same info. to try and avoid some frustration. Sadly, tomorrow a whole slew of folks will have just missed the coalminer ant :(
Dan
I hate saying no (unless it's my children hahaha). But gotta draw the line somewhere and really just stick to the business plan. But hopefully many more great designs to come. As long as people like yourself are interested in my models...I will keep making them :)
Jo
I feel your pain, the Angler Fish is the only month i miss too, I would love to have a full collection :P
Don Fief (aka SwagDad)
I kind of don't want to look... OK, I couldn't resist. I just looked. Not too bad. I am only missing a few. I think I will live. I am just glad you didn't start years ago, and lots of them missed...

If you make an account on my mini factory with same email as Patreon then you have access to the files all the time

Thank you for your response, we love all of your models and are so happy to be part of this patreon. Please don't feel we are ungrateful, but it is too bad and it is a little frustrating seeing all the models we will never have access to right on the front page.
Dan
That is correct. It has been my business model since the beginning, March 2022 and I would like to keep the previous releases limited. But there is a new one each month, so this will be the same for folks who join several months from now. You will have access to a limited release too :) And if you sell, this is great for business.
Luis E Torres
Your service is top notch!! Thanks
Dan
Fixed and changed to pdf. Had to try it on the phone to make sure it was functional.

So there's absolutely no way we can get exclusive models from the months we weren't subscribed? No way to even buy them? My booth would love an anglerfish but I am unable to access it :( Other patreons let you buy them from a secret post on cults
Dan
If you check the list above you will see that the skeleton astronaut was released in September. So the model is only available to patrons that were members during that month.
Luis E Torres
We are in 2023 though. Very nice to see the whole lineup in one place.
John Jerde
Ah. I see. So we need to make sure to download files before they move to my mini factory.
Dan
Yes, each month I have one download folder on patreon and add stuff to it throughout the month. Then I move everything to my mini fsctory on the last day.
I can't find the astronaut skeleton in your myminifactory page
As noted in the original post - *** ALL FILES get moved to My Mini Factory (free account) on the LAST DAY of the Month for continued access ***
John Jerde
So I have an ignorant question. Is there a link/place where all the downloads are at?
