Model Overview & Print Notes

**3 years later, the Octopus has grown!** Print in place with no support and no assembly required. Available both with smooth and textured skin. Includes also replaceable tentacles, no need to throw away failed prints! [Check the tutorial video](https://youtu.be/zj3bOYTX1Go). [Check here the timelapse and post-printing video.](https://youtu.be/zHN_-j0EIdk) **DISCLAIMER:** This print requires very good bed adhesion for the suckers to stay in place. I recommend disabling any “elephant foot” compensation on the slicer. For more tips, take a look at my [printing tips](https://www.mcgybeer.xyz/printing-tips). **UPDATE!!:** - New version with separate eyes added. - I've included also single tentacles to use as keychain. - Multicolor version now available! ## 3D Printing Settings A good first layer is mandatory for the print to succeed. Be sure your printer is calibrated and you have good bed adhesion. I recommend a slow and thick first layer (8 mm/s and 0.3 mm). Good layer cooling is also recommended, as it prevents curling and warping on overhangs. For more tips, take a look at my [printing tips](https://www.mcgybeer.xyz/printing-tips).
