Designed to look like a dragon bursting from the pages of your fantasy collection. This is an updated version of the original Dragon Emerging Book Nook, rebuilt based on community feedback and to better match the rest of the Dragon Emerging lineup. What’s New in This Update 12mm glass eye slots added Highly requested and now included, matching the other Dragon Emerging book nooks. Reworked rear horns Adjusted to significantly reduce supports and lower failure rates. Hand combined with the head No more gluing the hand in place. One less step and a stronger final print. Smaller nails to reduce printing failure Easier multicolor printing All horns are separated as individual objects, making it simple to point-and-click color them in Bambu Studio. Standardized dimensions The box now matches the same size as the other Dragon Emerging book nooks in my catalog for a consistent shelf look. ## 3D Printing Settings Print Settings Used for My Test Prints Head (multicolor, 3 colors): -0.20 layer height -2 walls -5% gyroid infill -Auto tree supports enabled -100% scale -658g filament -1 day 18 hours on a Bambu Lab A1 Print time and filament usage will be significantly lower if you print in fewer colors or single color.
