Custom Filament jointed claws my Niece and I created as a side project for our print of Lung Oriental Dragon by 7Fish

*Warning some filaments are flammable, a safer method of melting the ends could be a soldering iron plus flat piece of metal as seen in my 3W grow light project

*Updated 7/18/2019 to fix interference issues with claw

Yes

Yes

Filament: Generic PETG Post-Printing =============

Tools needed to complete (note each claw requires 4 "fingers" to be printed)

 

Insert 1.75 mm filament through the joints

 

Trim then apply heat (via flame or other source) - caution some filaments are flammable - a safer method might be to use a soldering iron or other heated object

 

Press the end of the heated filament using a metal object

 

With filament ends melted and pressed it forms a fairly robust movable joint

 

Fingers are completed in a similar fashion but filament runs through all 3 front fingers
