There are some fun models in the interweb.
From the Smithsonian, a skeletal Triceratops scan free for download. Non-commercial but good for personal use.https://3d.si.edu/object/3d/triceratops-horridus-marsh-1889%3Ad8c623be-4ebc-11ea-b77f-2e728ce88125
Took the skull, deleted the damaged side, duplicated the good side and replaced the deleted part.
11.5 hours later and maxing out my Bambu printer and I got this. It is about 11 inches long and 6.5 inches tall printed as one piece.
Need to seal it and then figure out what color to paint it.
Not bad for an old fossil!

lol. Old indeed.
The Smithsonian did a fun exhibit with the models. The original 3d model has a Trex chomping on a Triceratops. Of course had to make a cnc pattern from it.
Also made a cnc pattern from the triceratops skull.
They have a TRex skull in the downloads so I will be making a 3d print of it at some point in the near future for myself.

For anyone curious, this is the T-Rex skull from the Smithsonian exhibit. Included and ready to 3d print.
Of course makes a good looking cnc pattern.
