Who hasn't always wanted their own cuddly pet worm, but were put-off by the slime? Hermie at full scale is 20mm (3/4") in diameter, and as long as you like (48 reg. segments will make him about 65cm overall- over 2 feet long)! You will also need some .5mm elastic bead-cord, and a small hook or piece of wire to put him/her together. Print him in color or paint her like I did. This is my first model using meshmixer.
Some quick earthworm facts (that I learned while creating this):
-In one acre of land, there can be more than a million earthworms.
-The largest earthworm ever found was in South Africa and measured 22 feet from its nose to the tip of its tail.
-Earthworms have the ability to replace or replicate lost segments. This ability varies greatly depending on the species of worm you have, the amount of damage to the worm and where it is cut.
-Baby worms are not born. They hatch from cocoons smaller than a grain of rice.
-Even though worms don’t have eyes, they can sense light, especially at their anterior (front end). They move away from light and will become paralyzed if exposed to light for too long (approximately one hour).
-If a worm’s skin dries out, it will die (it breathes through it's skin).
-Worms are hermaphrodites. Each worm has both male and female organs.
-Worms can eat their weight each day.
-Worms have 5 "hearts".
-4 out of 5 people haven't read this far, you are special.
