3D Printed Dryosaurus dinosaur - 50-inches Long

[Brian_Krassenstein]

What happens when you have one paleontologist looking to create a 50-inch model of a Dryosaurus dinosaur fossil, and a reselling and 3D printing expert, who get together? You get a 50 inch long 3D printed dinosaur. Two men, Jeffrie Paker, and Kirk Brown teamed up to print such a dinosaur on a Stratasys uPrint SE Plus out of an Ivory ABSPlus material. The print had to be broken down into 20 pieces and then fused together. The men actually printed two separte dinosaur models, one for each of them.
