First arm now on a base and EZB waiting to be connected

Perry replied 7 years ago

Great Steve,
Cna you share some details on your tendons? They appear to be running through little tubes. How is the wrist rotation?
- Steve Cole replied 7 years ago
  
  Wrist rotation is fine, the tubes are ptfe tubing, this is the same tube used in my hot end on my 3 d printer, they seem to be working well

Could you upload photos of cables connected to the ez-b board? please

Clearance problems with the rob rings hitting the outer casing

Marten de Groot replied 7 years, 1 month ago

Hi Steve,
You need to mound the Rob Rings under the servo-pulley !
So it looks like this:

Painted most parts of the arm and fingers so I’ve started assembly. Watched over by my R2 D2 I built a few years ago

Steve Cole posted an update 7 years, 1 month ago

Hi folks, I printed all parts for my left arm in grey now regret not printing them in white. We use grey mostly in our studio as for some reason it seems to print better. We are printing in pla. So I’ve bonded parts together and am sanding a filling prior to etch prime and paint them shiny white. I have all my servos and a roll of that special…[Read more]

I’m in Norfolk, UK. I started my InMoov at the beginning of the year. I have complete the eyes/face and am now working on the rest of the head. I’m hoping to complete the head by the end of March, but it’s taking me longer than expected.
- Steve Cole replied 7 years, 1 month ago
  
  It might be good to get a group of us together in the uk to meet up and discuss progress and show off what we all have achieved
  - Steve Rayner replied 6 years, 11 months ago
    
    Yes I’m up for that. I’d like to get a little bit further first, but it would probably drive me to make more progress. How can we contact other builders?
    - Steve Cole replied 6 years, 11 months ago
      
      Hi Steve, I posted up on the google forum about this early this week. There are loads of Inmoov builders across the world but we don’t know each other. The original Inmoov map now does not work and I digested we have a page that we all put our location on with perhaps an email address. With that we could make contact with each other and get a…[Read more]

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!

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

OK, I’ll bite. What is it?
- juerg replied 7 years, 3 months ago
  
  ? a brand new dual extrusion head with coolers for the object and the extruders? Cooling the upper part of the extruder can prevent clogging – good. Enjoy the pic – once you start printing it won’t look as good as now!
  for ooze free multiple extrusion in a single object have a look at this

  - Mats Önnerby replied 7 years, 3 months ago
    
    It’s a dual extruder upgrade for the Vertex K8400 3D printer from Velleman. I can easily identify it, since I have the same printer for almost 2 years now. It works very well for PLA printing. It makes it possible to print different colors, but more importand, different materials. I tried it about a year ago, but at that time I have print quality…[Read more]

Mindless, I have downloaded your 3D InMoov Man – nice work. Should I be able to move parts around so I can see the internal parts? The drawing loads as a “Read only” file in SketchUp. Or is the drawing just that, a drawing of the assembled parts?
- buildstoys replied 7 years, 3 months ago
  
  Left-click a part (to highlight it in blue), then right-click and choose Hide.
- Mindless replied 7 years, 3 months ago
  
  It a complete 3d model,,, so you hide parts to see inside him- or you make changes to parts then export that part as STL (Need Plugin) and print them out-,,, if your new to 3d modelling it will take a bit of time how to work stuff out,,,- but SketchUp is one of the easiest of the 3d modelling platform-

    Sorry about that,,,,,now where was I,,,
    But you cannot work on the same file in two different widows —,, think of it as a “Master and Slave” set up,, the first time you open Inmoov man is the Master and if you open it again without closing that Inmoov the others will be loaded as slaves (read only),,,, and you cannot modify the slave ver…[Read more]

      I’ve just downloaded your 3D model… WAHOU !!!

Mindless posted an update 7 years, 3 months ago

Good question Perry- This is one use of a hundred mods/uses you can do with -3d Inmoov-
This mod allows the servo and gear to be positioned by just loosening and tightening the grub screw- You send the command line to the servo to adjust its position,,—,,then adjust the gear to the position you want,,, and then tighten the screw ,, I wasn’t s…[Read more]

Perry replied 7 years, 3 months ago

I am not sure of the purpose of this but I get the feeling it will be of great use to a lot of people. What should I use this for?
William hall replied 7 years, 3 months ago
