Immortan Joe Accurized Articulated Jaw Covid 19 Edition

thingiverse

This is a reimagined and detailed version of the Immortan Joe Mask. It requires some work to ensure proper fit but will function as intended. You'll also need to mirror the hose connector for the right side version, and most slicers come with a mirror function. Additionally, you must print two each of the strap slots and caps. To fit properly, measure the width of your face at your cheekbones. The mask width should be that plus 10-20mm (the original mask is about 20MM wider than that for reference). Once you scale the face mask up, use the same scale increase on all the other parts so they all fit together perfectly. I printed the face teeth separately and aligned them with the buildplate. The strap slots should be printed flat, and the caps with the circular indentations facing upwards. Optionally, I've provided some hose adapters that will allow you to fit a 20mm hose onto the hose connectors. To assemble, sand the peg holes and pegs to slide smoothly on the face, jaw, and strap slot holes. Also check the fitment of the caps to ensure they fit perfectly onto the end of the pegs (sand the peg ends, not the cap indentations). Slide the face pegs into the Jaw, then glue the caps onto the peg ends. The strap connections can tilt up so that the back strap goes over your ears. There are circular indents in the face; you'll want to glue the hose adapters to those with the peg facing down as shown, and make sure the holes on the sides of them face the middle of the face for adding L-shaped fire or tubes. There are two holes in the hose connectors, which are designed for a L-shaped copper tube on the original mask. Bent cuts from a coat hanger work perfectly for that. You'll also need to add some elastic or stretch fabric connecting the face to the jaw so it closes once opened. I recommend hot gluing 1" wide strips of stretch fabric behind the hose connectors to connect the face and jaw. For better articulation, you can hot glue a triangular cut of thicker craft foam to the inside bottom front of the jaw; it will catch your jaw better for articulation. Lastly, you'll want to wear a back facemask underneath this to hide your face.
