3D PRINTING SETTINGS
Recommended Print Settings:
- Printer Type: Optimized for Resin (SLA/DLP) for maximum detail, but fully compatible with Filament (FDM) printers.
- Supports: Yes, supports are required (especially under the jaw, belly, claws, tail underside, and base overhangs).
- Layer Height: 0.02mm to 0.05mm (Resin) / 0.12mm to 0.16mm (FDM).
- Infill: 10% to 15% (Gyroid recommended for FDM) or Hollowed with drain holes for Resin.

Post Processing Tips:
- Resin Prints: Wash thoroughly in Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA) and cure with UV light. If hollowed, ensure the inside is completely dry before curing.
- FDM Prints: Remove supports carefully using pliers to avoid damaging delicate parts like the pointed teeth, claws, and jagged tail scutes.
