@mcdaver I love you concept of interchangeable heads and your contributions of pics and descriptions are really valuable for experienced and novices! Forum robot builders are all different as far as comments. Many comment and many don't comment. Sometimes I wish the Forum did have a " Facebook " Like feature and hit counter like YT which would give the poster a gauge of interest... in a way posting here every step of building, as some people do is like a robotblog and a way to judge your own progress..........but it is what is !
....Don't be disheartened ! 
As you can see from the last pic above I like to print my robot at different sizes. His head prints with ears and all with no need of support. It takes time to built objects that you can really print. I have downloaded so many STL files that could never be printed by any machine the way they were. You don't know anything about 3d printing if you never print anything. 3d printing is amazing and a pain at the same time. Getting it to work is sometimes a battle. I thought the belts were too loose and made them a little tighter and this happened.
Any idea what this was supposed to be? What a mess. This is what I was trying to print.
The print came out fine after I loosened the belts a little. I was printing a Minecraft type tree. It is on thingiverse also. Way over 14 Minecraft items to download and 3d print. I 3d printed the Santa hat also.Thanks for the comments guys. I wont give up, too much good here at EZ-B. No other company updates their software so often and no one else does it for free. This software makes robots possible for everyone and powerful for those who bother to learn. EZ-B is the best and V4 will be even better. When will V4 ship? I need it! So much power and fun for less than the next LEGO robot system. LEGO can do 4 motors now, EZ-B V4 can do 24 servos all at once and read GPS, sonar, a Video camera and hundreds of things more. This is the right place for Revolution!
@mcdaver Thank you for sharing everything.

Your welcome jdebay If DJ wants to use my robots head or chest for anything he is free to download it and have a blast. I need to try the brackets DJ made.
@mcsdaver Thanks for sharing the pictures of the arms! I like those C brackets. Do you have a link to the 1/4 scale servos you used?
@rgordon Not sure where I bought them. They are System 2000 1/4 scale Servo TS 72 They are made for 1/4 scale vehicles. They work great on robots.
I got his arms and neck servos installed into his 3d printed body. Now he needs legs and EZ-B V4.
