3D model of a female Maryland blue crab

The 3D model was created from CT scan data (11M triangle OBJ file) at the Smithsonian Institution - Digitization | 3D https://3d.si.edu/

To simplify printing, the.obj file was simplified in MeshLab to reduce the object faces down from 11,317,504 to 2,000,000 faces and exported as an .stl file.
