Bring a different kind of holiday spirit into your home with this unique Christmas Grinch decoration!

This large figure stands approximately 1 meter tall, with a 42 cm arm span and a 23 cm belly circumference.

The model is designed to be printed in PLA, divided into multiple parts that are assembled using hexagonal connectors.

⚠️ Important note:

Besides using the connectors, the parts must also be glued together with a strong adhesive (cyanoacrylate or epoxy recommended).

Recommended Print Settings

Layer height: 0.24 mm

Infill: 15% Lighting (except for the feet)

Infill (feet): 10% Grid for extra strength

Perimeters: 3

Supports: Only where needed

Material: PLA

These settings ensure the model is solid yet lightweight, helping reduce PLA usage and print time.

Print Bed Compatibility

The model is designed for a minimum build plate size equivalent to a Bambu Lab A1 or larger.

However, it can be scaled down to fit smaller printers if needed.

Keep in mind that scaling down may affect connector tolerances and overall assembly strength.

Feet and Mounting

The feet include four holes on the underside so the figure can be fixed to a pedestal or base using hot-pressed M5 inserts.

This provides excellent stability for the entire model.

Assembly

Insert the hex connectors carefully, without applying excessive pressure, to avoid damaging the slots.

After fitting the parts together, apply glue for a strong, permanent bond.

Finishing

The final model was spray-painted with acrylic paint for a clean and vibrant finish.
