From the original source:

This model is a laser scan of a cast of Bernissart’s r7 specimen which belongs to the collections of the Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences.

The model is printable in seperate peices for each major bone that was part of the original scan. Most of them will fit on an average sized printer without special formatting, except for the arm portion, which will probably have to be broken up in your slicer. 

I included the one-peice Iguanodon_HandForeleg.Full.stl which is a single peice version of the foreleg if you want to slice it up custom. Also, I included the Iguanodon_HandForeleg.Sliced.*.stl versions which are that same bone broken into 4 chunks, sized to fit my print bed. They slot together to form the full foreleg with a dovetail-style joint for strength - but that might have been a bit of overkill.

I recommend printing the flatter short pieces so that they are standing on their ends to reduce printing artifacts on the tops. The longer bones (mainly the first ones in each digit) I had to print laying down so that they would adhere to the bed properly, which left some ringing on the tops. With more careful supports, or a better tuned printer, you may be able to print them all standing vertically.

I wanted to be able to remove and examine the bones from their display, and wasn't sure if I wanted to modify the pose later, so I printed a custom moulded frame for each of the bone segments and they simply sat on top of it. After the fact, I decided to add some magnets to get them to ‘stick’ to the display better, but if you wanted you could modify these to embed the magnets directly.

If I was to do another project like this in the future I would probably just join the bones with dowels and fix them into position, either as ‘finger groups’ or as one solid display piece, as that would have saved me a lot of work. It was nice being able to sand and paint each bone seperately though because I had good access to all sides of each piece.
