Full Size Head Model
Now considered finished unless I fix the offline cut in layer 3, noting there is no gap in model, its just annoying...
Will add images of the final prints when finished.
Update 6
Added hollow layer 4 back, with lid. Lids for top front and back face each other, so you can have a complete hollow brain case.
Update 5.
Beginning to look good with simple RGB leds, as I print piece by piece.
Added Hollow Layer 4 Front stl as the translucent prints with lights inside look too good!
Update 4.
Got a good print of layer 2 front, by laying it on its back, so lips facing up. Support internally was much less than I expected, and it came out really well, all other orientations had faults in the gcode, or unprintable implications, such as single width skirt of support that just fails eventually. Shame I didnt cut the back parrallel, but it is managable to align close to the bed.
Update 3.
Finding printing the hollow layer 2 front difficult, trying one final orientation. Though frustrating I did not cut the back parrallel to the Y in the first place so that complicates things.
Also added a hollow layer 3 front and lid, which should print far easier.
Update 2.
Added a hollow Chin piece, layer2Font and lid, because it seemed like the right thing to do! Bear in mind this is a work in progress, I have not tried to print it yet, so you may want to wait until I publish a success image or otherwise...
Update 1.
Warning, layer2front_fixed,stl had an unexpected internal void, the inside of the mouth, I have fixed this while playing with the model, and uploaded a new layer2front_fixed.stl
This is a full size head model, to ensure I scale the next Halo helmet correctly to my head size.
This is NOT my head, it is a generic model from
http://grabcad.com/library/head-model
I have sized it as close to my own head as I can, and will use that as a template to rescale the halo helmet to.
I am also printing it, as it will be curious to have around, and is a good base for modular upgrades...
I will add pictures as I print.
