Meet the Bucket O' Octopi—a playful twist on the classic barrel of monkeys, reimagined for the 3D printing world. These adorable linkable octopi are designed to snap together at all four corners, so you can build long chains, checkered sheets, or whatever tangled sea creature sculpture your imagination dreams up. Originally created by MakerBot's Matthew Griffin, this design has become a beloved favorite on Thingiverse and across the 3D printed toys community.

Each octopus features tentacle connection points that let you assemble endless configurations. Stack them, string them, or create a whole bucket's worth—the more you print, the more creative possibilities you unlock. They're satisfying to fidget with, fun to display, and a great conversation starter on any desk or shelf.

This is the refined v16 version, perfected over years of community feedback and MakerBot testing. Print one, print a dozen, or print enough to fill an actual bucket—your call.
