Hey Everyone!
Introducing the subscriber exclusive, White's Tree Frog! Also know as the Dumpy Tree Frog (poor fella). Since the original Tree Frog model was such a lean and lanky critter, I thought it would be really fun to make a variant of the much more... robust... White's Tree Frog. They have such fun look and I love the little skin rolls!
This design has the same magnet cavities (either internal or glue-in) as the other Tree Frog, so the process is the same there, and an instruction PDF is included in the download. I use these magnets for the Belly and these magnets for the Feet, but other sizes will fit. The Body will fit round magnets between 10x2mm - 10x3mm. The feet will fit round magnets between 5x2mm - 5x3mm.
Multicolor 3MF included!
Cheers!
Matt

3D PRINTING SETTINGS
Body: Print-In-Place. Pre-supported. No supports. Internal magnet slots.
Body, Glue In Magnets: alternate version with external magnets slots to glue them in.
Head: Pre-supported snap-fit clip.
3MF Multicolor files: Both the captive and glue-in magnet versions. PrusaSlicer & Bambu Studio
Magnet Test File: Very small model you can print to test your magnet sizes.
10-15% Infill.
3 Walls if using a 0.4mm nozzle.
Here's a VIDEO of how the head is attached (demo'd on the other Tree Frog). You'll notice I hook one edge of the clip into the socket and then sort of roll the other side in. That's the easiest way to fit it.
This model was successfully printed this model down to 60% scale, but your mileage may vary. It can print even smaller on very accurate printers.

I have the pause at 17, starts closing on 18&19

OK, I've sold hundreds of these and always glued the magnets in. I'm attempting to put magnets in during printing. I'm seeing the one foot magnet starts closing on layer 17 and the others on 18. Will I be ok putting all magnets in on layer 17 ?

Is there anywhere online I can get this file? I have five White tree frogs, and I would like to get this file.

Does anyone have any tips for painting the eyes? It takes me way too long and I make a mess of things.
MatMire_Makes
Yup! Just print the regular body. On that one, the magnet cavities are internal, so they aren’t visible. They’ll just be empty.
Becky Glenn
can you make it without the magnet? Or does it need the magnet?
