Bender Mk2 🦿🦾

I replaced Bender's joints 🤗

This is not the final version, but I think you can print it already.

I didn't use spiral legs as Bender would be unsteady. In addition, they are not always printed "cleanly".

This Bender is 1.5 times larger than the original. I think this scale is visually optimal. In addition, joints on a smaller scale may be fragile. But of course it is printed longer 😴

Previously, I added several variations of the hands (hard version) so that there were different poses. Now his hands have full rotation along one axis (and even a little more 🙃).

I decided to combine the antenna with his head.

There are a few points that I will finalize.

First, after printing, I removed about 0.3mm with a blade for the sphere to enter the hole. After printing, the surface has a stepped structure, after which time the surface will smooth out, the rotation will be easier.

Second, I need to come up with a new pin.stl fastener. I wish there was no need to use glue in this design.

I think this Bender mk2 will only be available on Patreon.

These joints are the same for both arms and legs.

In total, I really liked such joints. Now I'm making a new character from Futurama 🤘

Btw, I never do any one design. I always do some more small designs in parallel. For example, I started making Gravity Falls-inspired rings. At the moment, gnome Steve 🌈 is not easy to assemble 😓. Waddles 🐖 turned out well, so far, these are only prototypes, there will be another ring 🐐.

In the near future I will make a post with an authorized seller's badge 🏅
