    Hello Mr Gael,, The rebuilding and cutting up of Inmove in SketchUp for bigbed printing is coming along nicely,, as I was doing it a though it might be worth taking some pictures of the parts assembled but not cut up for reference for other builders,, as you can see in the posted picture it will give builder a better understanding of how it all…[Read more]

    • How is it working in SketchUp with the native STL files?

    • Thanks for the image. I’m adding it into the tutorial 3Dsketch views. It will certainly help other builders.
      Sketchup works pretty well with STL as long as the files do not have too many vertices. Many CAD softwares like to abuse with curves on all the edges and corners, which creates super heavy STL. Sketchup may then start to be very laggy. My…[Read more]

    • Hello Mindless,
      Thanks for posting the picture. I have added it to the chest and torso 3D sketch view.
      I see you do not have my ThroatLowerV1.stl, but a variation, which might confuse some builders though.

    Infill %- varies from part to part- most people use the standard- 30% with 3 Perimeters and 3 solid layers, which is good allrounder, personally I use a different setting for every different part, it just depends on what the part is for- the best wire to use is the type that doesn’t catch on fire….lol

    Its worth having a go at trying other other filaments but iv found you really cant beat good quality PLA when its printed correctly,, its hard so its good for gears and moving parts It prints like a dream compered to other filaments,,, and it doesn’t destroy the planet,,,
    I’v been R&D on 3d printers full-time for about 4 years now, mainly on d…[Read more]

    • CollorFabb PLA is good material anyway.
      XT can handle a higher temp when it’s printed, this part is a positive thing if InMoof stays for a long day in sunlight.
      So maybe I will use XT for some outside parts and all others with PLA 🙂

    Cool,,, Nice finger speed (no pun intended), I was worried about the movement speed of inmove because the videos iv seen him in he is moving very slow,, this is good to know he can do rapid movements

    Yep,, will post the files when i am happy with the finished results (just about there),,, had to do some touch up work last night on the “eye_glass” so the Mounting system for eyes moves a bit more freely….
    Will post a pic in my album when finished,,

    yep… Colorfabb is great stuff, iv tried every brand/type out there ,, i do a lot of printing,,, In Australia i use “Blueprinted” filaments which is pretty good quality for a cheap filament Colorfabb is hard to get here and its bloody expensive..
    I only use PLA you would surprised how tough the stuff when printed correctly – you wont have any…[Read more]

    • Thanks for your information.
      I get lucky to live in the Netherlands, the shipping costs are free when I order one spool.
      And with the 2.2kg spools it’s 30% less in price.

      I’m sure I need to play with some settings (temps and max speed).
      I hope to start this evening with some tests 🙂

      I’ve used CollorFabb PLA for some time now and this prints…[Read more]

    Hi guy and girls ,, here is a 4 Part Skull and 4 Part Internal Supporting Structure,,,Surprisingly a lot of work to put Inmoov back together,, Largest exterior surface alignment error was 0.3mm during mating process of the smaller sections, the leading edges were removed then hand stitched back together,,the forehead needed a little bit of work to…[Read more]

    • Great work. I used your previous version on my head. Really liked the streamlined look.
      Will you post thes files up?

    • Great Mindless!
      Just for info, there is some parts already available in the InMoov derivative collection, but I’m sure you must have seen them already.
