hi merne

i tested with TC .is ths something you can use ? the edges are 3 mm thik . you can ad all kinds off stuff .

Nice work nomad. You can also do it in tinkercad - there's an option for it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxtONgRdxDY

hi dj

i did it with tinkercad . more easy then in the video . copie it .make it a few mm smaller , center in the solid one and then cutt it in half with 0.5 mm plate . then copie again , from one you delete the front and from the other the back .done  from here you can choose the actully size and then ad or delete holes . or ad the camera . jeremie learned this easy way .

the head is 20 mm bigger then jd's head .

Nice job Nomad 6R!   Shoot me an e-mail,  Mikeerne2007@yahoo.com so we can talk price.  Thank you!

hi merne

are you looking human size robot or jd size robot?

I was looking at human size robot.  I wish I could figure out how do them my self, just not smart enough. :-(

Thanks Nomsd 6R

tinkercad is easy in use .  you can learn TC in one houre . i will help . a human size will be lots of messurements and testing .  keep the money for a 3d printer . each part will be some 40x40x40 cm i gess .

are you going to make a camera in the eyes or as seen in foto above like jd .

maybe you could make a quick video on how to hollow them out and how to slice them.  I've been tying to learn TC no luck.  Thank you for your help.

Edited:  Maybe do a teamviewer if you have the time.  it doesn't have to night.

we can do a skype session . then you can see it . the problem is the stl files are very tiny and we dont have the actully sizes . so we need some scaling ,drawings, something that gives us directions .you dont want to print excample day&night to come , the conclusion, that the size is not correct .   also for printing you have to practise and parts that big takes along printing time . i send you a message in gmail .

here is a big printer . cr10 max  with petg filament . printer

all pictures helps . all needs to be adjusted and ad walls to support and mount servo's . also you need omni wheels and motors .this is really a big project and can take very long time . what camera you gonna use ? am not sure if a servo can lift these big arms ?  the head would be some 20x20x20 cm i gess .

I don't know what type of camera yet.  Yes this is a big build, I was hoping to make the shell first then figure out what servos to use. once I have the hollow build I can get the omni wheels and servos as needed.

the problem is . you cant upload a full size in TC .  so you have to cut it pieces . to be able to get it uploaded in TC . here some pictures .the top body is 30 cm hight . the pepper is 140 cm tall .so am gessing each part will be arround 30 a 40 cm tall . let me know what you want to change .

hollow top body.stl

i got all parts hollowed out . only thing to do is for you to ad correct size . i also hollow out the hands so you can choose the fingers . the origginal fingers looks kinda short .

I would need the body sliced 4 time to fit my bed volume print size.

am gessing each part will be arround 40 cm . chest/legs/foot . and the head some 25 cm ,thats some 145 cm tall  consider your printer is only 2800x250x300 mm so you will have to cut each part in half , then ad more L-H-W .  also in the backside chest you will need a door panel in the back .i will show you that in TC . we have to finich the chest part first .

Dumb question. Does anyone know the source of these STL files and if there is a CC or other open licence for them. I am interested in potentially following along and make a Pepper clone but I would not want to get in hot water by using anyone else’s intellectual property without the appropriate licence permission.

hi nink

i gess the files are 7 years old and many makes them . the top link is all we have .

hi merne

i made the head a little bigger .pictures in an hour or 2 . previous stl head had holes in upper lid eye and lower lid eye .

Hi Nomad

I know softbank discontinued manufacture last year but they do continue to rent them out and maintain the software. I am not sure how or why the STL files appeared on the internet but the design patent is still active.

Hi Nomad 6R

i was hoping to have the eye hole a little larger and the camera hole.  Can we do s Skype Monday?  You can pick the time.  Thanks

hi merne
