Color:

Base for the characters of "Tom and Jerry" cartoon series created by Hanna and Barbera for MGM. The series features comic fights between an iconic set of adversaries, a house cat (Tom) and a mouse (Jerry). The plots of each short usually center on Tom's numerous attempts to capture Jerry and the mayhem and destruction that follows. No supports are required. If you have the proper filament colors, no painting is needed. The assembled base is 105mm tall. --------------------------------------------------------------- The full Tom model: https://www.myminifactory.com/object/3d-print-tom-cat-308311 The full Jerry model: https://www.myminifactory.com/object/3d-print-313588 --------------------------------------------------------------- Enjoy! ........................................................................................................... Special shoutout to maker Benoît Lussier for providing QA printing and quality feedback. ........................................................................................................... Print Instructions:Supports: NoResolution: .2mmInfill: 15% ************For all my models:Do not enable 'Detect bridging perimeters'. This is a parameter that PrusaSlicer 2.6 enables by default.Do not enable 'thick bridges'Do not set 'arachne' for perimeter generation. PrusaSlice selects this option this by defaultDo not enable 'detect thin walls'. ************ Refer to the notes below for a few helpful printing and assembly instructions. ...........................................................................................................

Printing and assembly tips Printing tips: Due to slicers being continuously updated with new features and default profiles being changed over time, I've found some incompatibility with some new parameters that some slicers now enable by default. These parameters affect the printing quality of some parts of models that I post. To ensure continued ease of printing: *************************1- Do not enable 'Detect bridging perimeters'. This is a parameter that PrusaSlicer 2.6 enables by default which adversely affects built-in support separation.2- Do not enable 'thick bridges'. This parameter also severely affects built-in support separation.3- Do not enable 'detect thin walls'. This parameter affects some of the finer details of some parts.4- Do not set 'arachne' for perimeter generation. PrusaSlicer selects this option by default which also affects some of the finer details of some parts.************************* 1 - No supports are required. 2 - There are some pieces that may need brims or rafts, use your discretion. When setting up my prints I prefer to be conservative to ensure the least chance of a print failure, especially since the base of many parts are hidden when inserted into another part. *I did not use any brims or rafts for this model 3 - The wall requires color changes as follows: Start with the basic wall color of your choice Layer height 4.2 mm is the first change to red Layer height 4.8 mm is the second change to black. 4 - Since this model is not based on any actual scenes from the cartoon, colors are completely optional. My wife even suggested some sort of wallpaper for the wall! ..Assembly tips: 1 - The base is straight forward to build. The two characters can be positioned and glued at your discretion. 3 - Refer to the assembly diagrams in the pictures section as well as the uploaded pictures for putting the model together. The model is meant to be glued. Do not hesitate to ask questions, feedback is essential to making better models.
