Hi
I have been printing the files that were generously supplied by Mickey666mauss for his creation of Zoe. I was interested in the original Zoe head as it just appealed to me as I wanted to have a socially interactive robot and I feel that robot would not be viewed as to human looking and get a negative reaction. like my inmoov and buddy my human looking robot head seem to get on occasion. I wanted to have my Zoe have a mouth so emotion could be verbal. so I have added a mouth on zoe which I think looks very good and also works very well. Other changes I have made to Mickey's design, I have a lot of regular servos mostly metal gear, I decided to make my version of zoe with standard servos and using a EZ-robot V4 Controller as this is what I am more comfortable with. of course I had to alter the parts of zoe to fit standard servos, which was not an easy task as I feel I am not that good with Cad design. but I managed to make due. This version of Zoe will be mobile mounted on a mobile base and I have lots of design to complete to make that happen. My version of Zoe is not complete but most of the parts have been printed. I have had a belt self destruct on my delta printer and I am waiting for a replacement and during this pandemic it will take a while. the arms are almost complete but I will add pictures of that and Zoe moving later. the pictures I have downloaded show Zoe and Zoe with eyes illuminated. the camera is also installed the lights are bright so Zoe can see better in the dark.

Nice!! Is that a general feature if the Inmoov or did you make it up? How much reduction does this gearbox give you and how is the backlash?
@Mickey666Maus The elbow was invented by aerius a member but we don't hear from him much. here is the link and maybe it can help you with your questions https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2778760.
My other Hobby is Guitars and I have finished building this arch top hollow electric acoustic guitar, and Bruce-e wanted to hold the new guitar so I took a picture, he said he wants to learn how to shred the guitar. that is a playing technique. I said no. and Cog is to small to hold it.
nallycat
that is so cool.can you play too?
Hi nallycat, I was wondering where everyone went. Quiet out here -
Any videos of your robots?
Hi Nomad -
nice guitar, I play jazz - rock blues guitar also
Tell Bruce -e I want to hear him play, lol
EzAng
@Nomad6R @EzAng Yes I can Play Guitar. mostly acoustic but I had a desire to play Jazz so I built this guitar. you can play electric or acoustic. it is great fun. I am a luthier and have built from scratch hurdy gurdies, nyckelharpa, fiddles, monkey organs, uilleann Irish bagpipes , recorders and ukulele, the largest is harpsichords here is a picture of my new guitar in front of one of my harpsichords. the oil painting is by me and I also do oil paintings. too old and very little time.
You have many great talents, which one is your real job?
So when will a video be displayed of one of your robots?
EzAng
@EzAng Thanks for the nice Comment, Just between you and me I don't think many members of Synthiam appreciate when you make videos, not many even comment on your videos and they don't realize the time and effort it takes to make videos. I use my time for building and designing. and I like helping members with fresh ideas. if you check youtube there are a few videos I made of my inmoov robot. Cog is my latest robot and not many members found interest in Cog. as it is not in my nature to impress people, I build for myself. That is why it is so quiet at synthiam. no body like to comment on anything. maybe they will just leave a thumbs up. I can't recall you leaving a comment on Cog. see what I mean.
