3D Printing a Pangolin for #WorldPangolinDay

The Pangolin is known as the scaly anteater, and is reaching extinction levels. People hunt them for their meat and scales, with some believing their scales have medicinal properties. World Pangolin Day is the day we try to raise awareness for this cute little creature.

2. My pangolin's legs aren't moving at all. I've printed with rigid.ink High quality ABS. Could someone help me?
3. What UP 3D printers do you have?
4. @3DPrintingNerd what settings do you use in slicer to make movable parts?
5. i did not know it was possible to 3D print moving parts.
6. 2:19 you spelled it wrong!
7. You could make some cool armour using the same method as the pangolin model!
8. "Some people think they have beneficial effects" no the real word is either "retard people" or "third world country people" or "Asiatic countries" you choose from that list.
9. "unfortunately they are facing extinction" You said it like its just so simple. I imagined a pangolin talking to its boss like "Yeah Jan I have an appointment at five and then I have to face extinction at seven thirty... Ill have to get back to you with those spreadsheets."
10. Since you are the local 3d printing authority may I ask for a suggestion on 3d printer for a beginner. I would like the build plate to be large enough so I could print a Pangolin though. Thank you for your help!

12. You should probably invest in a metal spatula that you use to free your creations from their beds. I'd think that would be easier and safer to the models, you could even take the front edge of the spatula and grind it to a razor like slope so it could fit under any gap.
13. What size printing plate do you need to print this?
14. I feel like he's the Markiplier of the 3D printing world.
15. What was up with your audio?

17. Nooo! My favorite pokemon is going extinct!? D:
