Here is a Thingiverse link

They are easy to print and can be shaped after for a realistic look. I used a .2 nozzle and dipped the legs in boiling water to bend them to shape.

The black widows really get that screamish response that most bugs don’t give me. There’s something about that red on black that hits my primal buttons in a tizzy

The only other bugs that get me like that are the too many (more than eight legs) bugs. Milli/centipedes

Redbacks? If you’re deploying these in Australia then that is just evil.

As an Australian I had a heart attack before I read the title.

You don’t just pick up a handful of redbacks, you fool! You kill them with fire and sleep with one eye open for the next month!

I had a teacher who like… owned or had something to do with running a store called Redback. Now that I think of it idk why he was a teacher with that kind of money. We found a redback in the classroom and he relocated it outside. Just in the yard. Where the children play.

Good times.

Don’t worry, when I print them they will be left over white, left over Oreo, left over shiny blue, etc.

These guys are gonna look sick 😎
