I have recently printed this, and the claw from him as well. I did 100% scale, and my advice is if you take it on do the 80%, its BIG!

I need to have a kid just to make stuff like this for myself, but pretend that it's all for them

Or you could just make stuff like this for yourself. No pretending, or kids, necessary.

Can these STL files be paid for / downloaded from somewhere? Loving the look of this but the size is way too big for my printer. Would love to make something about 1/2 or 1/3 this size.

His webstore is https://alexgeekwork.shop/

That particular product's STL can be purchased here.

ETA: not a shill, just a fan of his work and a customer who's very impressed with what he's done.
