For any one having trouble printing the excavator (and maybe other figures): The STL has some issues, so you should auto-fix the STL first (I use Prusa Slicer for that, which creates a .OBJ file which you can then use). Second, make sure you use a brim and set perimeter count to 3 as agepbiz recommends

I have printed the egg; however, it won't open. What is wrong?

Beautiful Project, Congratulations!

I can't print the digger well, I tried various parameters ... can someone give me some printing advice?
Thank you

I recommend slow printspeed, 30mm/s. 0.1mm layer height with 3 walls/perimeters. Make sure you use a good quality filament and optimal print temperature for that filament

Can you disclose what size nozzle you're using and what material? I'm having trouble with getting mine to articulate, even with a little "help" at the joints. I'm using a lulzbot mini. I LOVE this and want them to work for me. Thanks!

Thanks! 0,4mm nozzle and standard PLA filament. If the joints get fused it is usually a sign of overextruding. Lower your feedrate multiplier
