• Size: 1-vexel
• For more information about this module, visit:
• Specimen 015 prints in 2 parts.
• The bottom part can be a bit challenging depending on printer speed and layer height. I printed mine with 0.2 Structural on the MK4S. Most likely, you will get stringing towards the end of the print. It's cool, keep it! Just cut the strings in the middle: it will give a more organic feel to the print.
• Black eyes: I just painted them afterward. You can keep them white if you want.
Kura Curiosa is an ever-expanding collection of modular artwork, drawing inspiration from the idea of a futuristic cabinet of curiosities. The project features both free-to-download 3D-printable pieces and exclusive works.
The collection is organized in categories:
• Vexels (frames)
• Specimens (main content)
• Sentries (AI sentinels)
• Cores (control units)
— You can 3D-print curiosa in any material or color (you can also experiment with different top fill patterns), though my typical choice includes white or gray Specimens within black Vexels.
— Assembling: All Kura Curiosa modules use M3 x 8mm screws & M3 square nuts (5.5 x 5.5 x 2.6mm)
— Best to use a 0.4mm nozzle. If you decide to use 0.6 or 0.8, make sure to test the tolerance between Vexels before printing tons of them.
— Rubber Mallet : your best friend when two Vexels don’t want to connect to each-other.
— This module DOES print on PRUSA MINI
