<p>This model has been popular for many years because it is simply nice.<br/> After moving to new flat, I was looking for something original on the bathroom mirror.<br/> I printed the original and ... His arms fell off quickly. So disapointent...<br/> My wife said she only smacked it slightly ... Yes, of course. I belive ;)</p> <p>I decided to improve the structure. And so began the adventure with Fusion 360 to create an almost whole project from scratch.</p> <p>EDIT 18.07.2019 - I changed wrong old part "arm.stl' to "new_arm.stl". Thanks to Scraty.</p> <h3>Print instructions</h3><p>This model of the robot has been popular for many years because it is simply nice.<br/> After moving to a new flat, I was looking for something original on the bathroom mirror.<br/> I printed the original and ... His arms fell off quickly. So disappointment...<br/> My wife said she only smacked it slightly ... Yes, of course. I believe ;)</p> <p>I decided to improve the structure. And so began the adventure with Fusion 360 to create an almost whole project from scratch.</p> <p>EDIT 18.07.2019 - I changed wrong old part "arm.stl' to "new_arm.stl". Thanks to '@Scraty'.</p> <h3> Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer Brand:</strong> Anycubic<br/> <strong>Printer:</strong> Kossel<br/> <strong>Rafts:</strong> Yes<br/> <strong>Supports:</strong> Yes<br/> <strong>Resolution:</strong> 0.15-0.2<br/> <strong>Infill:</strong> yes<br/> <strong>Filament:</strong> different PLA up to project</p> <p><strong>Notes</strong><br/> Don't rush. It's a simple role.</p> <p>This model requires high accuracy, so leave high speed for other projects. I did not exceed 50 mm/s, and sometimes I printed even slower.<br/> The smaller the model, the lower the temperature and the speed.</p> <p>Instead of describing everything, I decided to take more pics. There you have shown what, how and in what order to assemble.<br/> Some holes require calibration with a drill - this is pretty normal.<br/> You can use files and small upholstery knives.</p> <p>I tried to give good tolerances but I do not guarantee to match the parts straight from the printer. It is simply impossible.</p> <p>Ahhh, something else...</p> <p>Personally, I did'nt stick my arms and hands to the main body.<br/> I made them pressed so that they can easily be replaced after breaking.</p> <p>I have printed parts in a couple of colours with the 'change filament' function in Cura.</p> <p>It's much easier than - for example - fitting a yellow star into the hole of the solar panel.<br/> One thing more - some parts need smaller hotend to print successfully with higher resolution.</p> <p>Enjoy :)</p> <h3>How I Designed This</h3> <p><strong>Why and how did I make modifications?</strong></p> <p>The author himself pointed out that this is his first project. That's why I decided to do a lot of parts from scratch that contained errors that made printing difficult.<br/> Then came more and more new elements, just to make the model look cool and more similar to the original.</p> <p>In total, I made 21 parts. Only caterpillars and circles remained from the original. It was fun :)</p>
