About this print

This articulated shrimp is a flexible model based on familiar aquarium shrimp, including caridina, amano and neocaridina varieties. Its connected moving sections make it suitable as a handled model, novelty desk object or addition to an aquarium themed display. It can also serve as a simple example of print in place articulation. PLA is a sensible printing material because it holds small joint details accurately.

It’s a Shrimp, and yes, it’s articulated! ;)

Formatting may have been simplified. These are the independent maker's instructions and fitment claims; Hark Tech has not independently verified them.

Printing articulated shrimp

For articulated shrimp we would normally reach for PLA — it is the easy, economical default and suits the majority of models. We set the layer height, wall count, infill and supports to suit the model and how you will use it, and those choices are already priced into your instant quote. Want a specific colour or material? Tell us and we will match it where we can.
