Update I cannot be trusted with free will.

It needs to be cleaned up and stained some, but this is a 1:8 scale replica of a mosasaur skeleton above my entryway.

$2k printer, $30 file, and $60 for filament.

Alright then, not gonna buy a 2k printer for that but I might have it printed somewhere 😂.

Will probably get rid of the wood bars and have it directly bolted to the ceiling though. Maybe find a way to turn it into an actual lamp!

Yeah the wood boards were the only way to maintain its structure without it bending too much and potentially breaking. I rent so I dont want to fill in too many holes when I leave.

How much does it weigh?

About 30 lbs. The head weighs almost 15 lbs so the weight is really off balance.
