Downloading Inmoov files When you click on download all files , it download all file but they are not the same version as listed under parts
Yes Gael has mentioned before that he needs to go through and update the zip files. For now download each file individually, as they are usually the latest ones.
Good to know, just wasn’t sure if anyone was aware of it thank you

Some parts are assembled by Laser-cutter-spares. The pleural parts are in whole , that save a lot of times.

Hello everyone! Lately I haven\’t been communicating a lot on our community page… The reason is my free time is just becoming SOOOO little that I try to keep up with the necessary. So please keep communicating, and if ever I can, I will try to catch up with all your great posts!!
Best regards to all the InMoov Builders!
Hello Geal: I’m a college student from China –Shanghai Jiaotong University(SJTU), perhaps you are not familiar with it ,but it is one of the most famous university in China. And at present, we have a team working on the InMoov project . Firstly I want to express my gratitude for your generosity about the design, and to be honest, each of the…[Read more]

Hello, I would like to know how Gael smooths his ABS parts. I’ve read many online discussions about using acetone and various vapor systems, but all of them appear to be somewhat unsafe since the efficient ones tend to incorporate heat. I’m looking for something where acetone can be brushed on or wiped on with a cloth, but that may not be…[Read more]
Hello, I do not smooth my prints for InMoov, the parts are straight from the printer. If the printer is well calibrated it all fits very nicely and the finish surface is very clean.
When ever I need to smooth ABS for some other jobs, I put a bit of acetone in a jar with a closed lid. I set the part inside the jar on a small support, so the part…[Read more]
Thank you for your feedback Gael. I was aware of the “acetone in a jar” technique but unfortunately it doesn’t work well for large (tall) pieces because the acetone vapors tend to stay at the bottom of the jar so the polishing is rather uneven. I shall endeavor to perfect a better method, hopefully without setting my house on fire 🙂
Gregory, I use the “Jar-Vaping” method as well. My parts are usually less than 200mm tall, however, this tip may help…
1) Line the inside of the jar with paper towels, from bottom-to-top and secure them to the sides. ( i am using a paint can, so i just use magnets to pin the towels down. This will act as a wick and the Acetone will travel up…[Read more]
Hi Jeffrey,
Thank you for your detailed rely. I have seen this “paint can” method before (I did mention that I’d seen various vapor methods). I was hoping to avoid using vapor and to use either a “brush on” or “clothe wipe” method. Your method does work well and your substitution of a glass jar for the metal paint can is an improvement because…[Read more]
Hey Gregory,
We use the Pressure Cooker Acetone method on our InMoov parts.
1 – Buy a pressure cooker solely for this use. 2 – Put a few drops of acetone into the pressure cooker and place the parts on supports. We use screws coming up from the bottom of the fry basket. 3 – Make sure the lid is closed on turn the pressure cooker to warm for 30…[Read more]

Hight is 7.5MM
This is a cool idea. I’m thinking about trying this with aluminum. Any advice before I get started? Is 7.5mm correct? I thought these parts were 10mm, no?
10MM? I measured some .STL files and find they are 7.5MM . Maybe the pleural parts are 10MM ? Aluminum is too rigid to work with. Wood is fine and cheap.

Made some new arm back covers based on Juerg’s design. Modified them so you can use the Neurvo boards.
