Pteranodon ; from Greek πτερόν and ἀνόδων is a genus of pterosaur that included some of the largest known flying reptiles, with P. longiceps having a wingspan of 6.5 m. They lived during the late Cretaceous geological period of North America in present-day Kansas, Alabama, Nebraska, Wyoming, and South Dakota. [From Wikipedia]

This pteranodon skeleton is designed to be printed in parts and assembled with paperclip wire and glue. I used pieces of paperclip wire (~20 mm long) to connect the wing bones for strength, since if it's printed at 100%, the wingspan of the assembled skeleton is ~42" [108 cm]! Snap together features would be really small and would not be strong enough at that size. The model works out to be about 1/6th scale compared to a full size pteranodon fossil skeleton.

Many thanks to Holden Williams [https://sketchfab.com/Rag02] for making his original 3D model available for this project. I have made numerous modifications that may not be completely accurate, but make printing the parts easier.

Print Settings

Printer Brand:

Ultimaker

Printer:

Rafts:

No

Supports:

Yes

Resolution:

0.10 to 0.15 mm

Infill:

20%

Filament: Any PLA or PLA+ Urban Fossil (Gray-green)


Notes:

In Cura use Tree supports and no brim. This makes removing the supports much easier.

Slice the parts as pre-arranged (that's how I did it), or reposition them in your slicer to your liking.

Post-Printing

The wing bones have 0.7 mm holes pre-drilled for paperclip or similar wire. Use 0.1 mm or smaller layer height for these parts, or the wire holes may not be formed. I used a pin vise with a ~0.8 mm drill bit to clean out the holes and allow some room for glue. I used Loctite 401 CA glue to assemble the parts.

How I Designed This

The basis for this object is Holden Williams' Pteranodon model on Sketchfab, which is freely downloadable.

I mainly used Meshmixer to separate the parts, modify some of them to ease printing, add connecting features and wire holes, and make the individual pieces watertight for printing.
