Let's Go Fishin' (fishing) game pieces

This model is a re-upload of sheldon0's fish head model from Thingiverse, plus a fish body model I created.

Print

No special instructions for the fish body. I printed mine at 0.2mm layer height.

For the fish head, the original instructions worked well for me:

You will need supports for several areas - I used Prusa's auto generated supports and didn't need any manual adjustments. If you however create your own supports, focus on the pins, teeth and the triangle inside the mouth.

I also suggest using a brim around the print as the thin walls can make the print slide off the bed easily.

Since you can only get in 2 or 3 perimeters - I would use 100% infil (or combined layers)

Print quality worked best for me in 0.1 but I've successfully printed a 0.07 that doesn't really look much better.

Original Summary from Thingiverse

The pressman Let's Go Fishin' game uses the non-magnetic version for the fish to hook them out. Unfortunately the Mouthpieces started breaking on me so I designed replacements for them. The body itself is still fine but even if I need them down the line - looks like others have uploaded that already (just not the mouth piece).

Anyhow here is my version of the mouth piece for the game. Took several versions to align the fin, mouth stopper and teeth and everything else as most parts actually do serve a purpose not just looks.

I printed several of these and they work great for our game.

For my first print I used translucent blue PLA to match the blue fish missing a mouth.

This model is a combination of sheldon0's fish head piece, plus a fish body model which is my own original creation.
