hey mickey

thanks .havin lots of ffun.xD

this printing is dangerous addictive:p.

@Normad 6R      Told you so, what next the torso or the waist.    LOL    Bruce-e thinks he will have a new friend soon.

hey nallycat

the torso would be a good start.need to look how all fit together. good thinking off brucexD.

@Nomad 6R   to fit the torso parts together, and as long as you are using PETG  you boil water in a long enough pan to hold the edge of the torso parts and you hold  the edge with the dove tails  into the water wait about 30 to 40 seconds and remove from the water using a hammer put the dove tails  over the slots and lightly hammer the dove tails down into the slots, you get a perfect fit.   you join the parts together using Weldon 3 by wiping the joint with a brush.  this is a very strong bond.

thanks for the tip.i still use pla for the moment.

test part

Normad  PLA is not acrylic  but PETG is and you can glue it with any acrylic glue.  have you watched Will Huff's Droid Bartender build.  it is PETG and you can join parts together using a soldering iron.  you are wasting your time using PLA on a large robot,  get yourself some PETG and start making inmoov parts.  I would not use PLA for anything used in robotics. If you printer can be used with ABS then start using that, save the PLA for owl sculptures.

okay abs will be .petg is to expencive here . 80 euro's per 1 kilo + chipping almost 100 euro's
