Robot đồ chơi mô -đun

I printed the robot at 150% scale to make it sized for my 2 year old son, but this was a lot of filament.  However, all attached models are sized to match the the Modular Toy Robot Arm that I remixed this from.

Print and Assembly Recommendations:

• All parts with gears must be printed laying all the gears flat.
  • Gears may fuse a little, but will break free with a bit of force.  If need be, a razor blade can be used to break apart layer gaps for print in place pieces.
    • I needed a razor for test prints at 100% scaling, I did not for any printed at 150%
  • Robot Body gears had to be printed separately from the the robot body cube and glued.  I glued 5 of them with superglue and 1 of them with hot glue.  This is to ensure I can remove one of the gears to retrieve anything that falls inside if needed.
  • Since supports are needed to print the robot cube body the best gear to hot glue is the one on the bottom, the supports will leave a rough surface that the glue will adhere to better.
• Joiners are not glued
  • Print the joiners with ‘Fuzzy Skin’. It will give them better friction against the parts and hold them together better so they don't have to be glued.
  • Any female joint that prints with the joint at 90° to the joint may need to have the layer lines sanded so there isn't too much friction and the joiners get stuck.
• Print the Hips upside down
• Swirls Plates have alternatives
  • There is both a ‘single swirl plate’ and ‘swirl plates’ with the latter containing 3 plates so you can print them in one print.
• The following pieces need supports (all others do not, just rotate them).
  • Body Cube - It was either supports or make it solid and use alot more plastic
  • Hips - same as Body Cube
  • Swirlbase - minimal supports if you print it face down
  • foot_R and foot_L - a gap had to be added to ensure that a razor blade could fit and help free the gears after printing (if needed). Put supports on the gap, nowhere else.
