Flexi Factory Imperial Dragon
🕑 Added 2022-04-05 16:05:06 +0000 UTC( Note: Check April 8 post for most updated file )
When I worked in gaming, my boss would make fun of me because I would name files as "Final" like "temple_final.fbx" By the time it got implemented it would be named "temple_final_05.fbx" (5 revisions after final) 😁
Maybe being a perfectionist didn't make sense in gaming but I feel like it works for me here.
So...final updates :)
*Looser spike connections
I still felt that the spikes linked together too tight possible causing them to break when pushed at the wrong angle. It's still possible to break them but now it's minimized further.
*Fixed Leg weld
also I fixed a problem with the last push where the leg was welded a little to the body. Thank you Michelle w for pointing this out. My apologies, If you are currently printing this version its not too tough to wiggle the leg free.
Included are 4 STL's (use the one that best fits your print bed)
*Flexi Factory Dragon Square Bed.stl
(use this for a square print bed...Most Printers)
*Flexi Factory Dragon Wide Bed A.stl
(slightly wider...Prusa or similar)
*Flexi Factory Dragon Wide Bed B.stl
(even wider...good for Resin Printers)
*Flexi Factory Dragon Printmill.stl
(straight version...only good for a printmill)
The head is able to sit up due to interlocking spikes on his back. Once printed be careful not to push the spikes too hard before you learn the proper technique especially with silk PLA, which is more brittle (think slide together rather than press together) They should loosen up as you play with it.

It depends on which file you use and the size that you print it. The model is scalable up or down
Ernesto Vergne

Oh noooo! So glad you got a good.print done!
MegaObi
That is a beautiful green. Is that mint?
Dan
It should, I think you have too big a safe area. but it should scale fine
Megan Jensen
I had a power outage yesterday and because I upload to octoprint, I couldn’t resume the print. I had to start over, but, he turned out AMAZING! He finished around 4pm this afternoon.
Adam
Looks like an ender 3 pro wont fit this without scaling?
Dan
A is a little wider. Good for a Prusa or something similar. B Is even wider. Cant think of any FDM printers that are this wide, it was a special request for a Resin printer. I am updating the post with that info.
Makerworld king
What the difference between wide A and wide B?

I was looking in cura threads to find what I changed that was causing this. It never dawned on me it was a different file that I was slicing until I logged in here today. >facepalm< We were spittin pearls (f.tuck0369 on tiktok) from both machines and then train wreck. Thank you for the update. I also agree with the different filenames. My cipher is: 90.r.FlexiDragon.p.gcode = size.(r)aft/(s)kirt/(n)aked.print name.(p)rototype/(P)roduction.gcode Thank You @FlexiFactory for the update!
Dan
good point. I will make sure I change the name in the future. you can see the error of the old one in the slicer. About half way up the left thigh it joins a little with the body.
Makerworld king
the old ones and the fixed ones have the same name? i am consused. hope I am printing the fixed one.
Allen Smith
I would love to figure out a way to split him in 1/2 and reconnect so I can print even bigger than my Ender-3 bed! lol
Uncle Jessy
About to throw down a resin dragon ;)
Christina Night
Just started this print about 20 mins ago. So excited!
Nicholas Murarik
Fine, I'll print a 3rd one. :-D 150% looks amazing btw.
Megan Jensen
I started printing this guy a few hours ago... It's going to be another day and a half... LOL I can't wait!
Allen Smith
I just finished the last final version this morning! Awesome design. Downloading the new one, just in case. This result was printed at 75 or 80%, I can't remember which. https://gyazo.com/5c7b60f98c3ab2413cd5a377ede59b4a
Heather Dryer
Thanks!
Simon Neal
Fantastic again mate. Keep it up! This is going on the printer over the weekend. Cant wait
Christina Knoll
Thank you for continuing to make adjustments to the design for us!
David Martinez
The original is still the easiest to print of all the dragon models. Great design!
