Update + XL Elephant
🕑 Added 2022-05-05 19:00:00 +0000 UTCHi there,
Here are the updates.
*Reduced ear fail. A couple people reached out to me about the ear popping off while printing, so I increased the surface area of the ear to the build plate, and smoothed over some edges that might curl and catch an edge.
*Updated the Star on headpiece. A patron brought it to my attention that the stitching detail around the Star was too thin and didn't print right. I totally agreed and gave it a sunken bevel instead which I think works much better.
*XL Elephant. This was a great request!
They are scaled the same as the 1 piece elephant so you can scale the accessories at the same rate.
I suggest slicing both the head and body before printing to ensure they will both fit at the same scale on the build plate.
Super glue works great, just don't glue it to the table...yes I have done that before. 😁
I love all the feedback!
Thanks again,
-Dan

Any chance to get a version of this without the circus garb? We get a lot of elephant requests

Thank you so much for replying and can't wait to get this
Dan
The XL elephant is also included when you purchase the regular size.

Can I ask where I would get the file for this larger elephant? Is it included in the file you buy from my mini factory

Thanks. I got the link in the email, but for some reason it would not connect. I had to set up a new discord account. All good!
Dan
Answered you in PM. But there should be a discord connect in the welcome email. I will check and see why that isn't coming through.

I have tried to join the discord, but the email didn’t contain anything other than the settings link to patreon. Can you help?
Dan
These have to be glued.

You can share pics on discord! Unfortunately it isn't a Patreon feature :(

I wish we could share pictures! We printed the elephant successfully finally and we sure brushed him!
Before i go into a 20hr print how are we joining the head and body.

Just finished the two piece. Ita so awesome. What scale is it so I can make the toys?

I am loving the new ears. They already look so much better half way done with a print.
My first 2 prints were also broken due to the ear. Thanks for the fix! (By the way, I dropped it on the carpet from about 20cm high and the ear broke ...)
Jo
Awesome thanks for the larger version :D
Donnie
Thanks for offering both split and as a single model. Love your work. Keep it up.

Thought I was the only one losing the ear, glad to hear I wasn’t. Thanks Dan!

Will be starting it shortly. Thanx Dan.
