These were great. Followed the guide but any tips on a little more strength in the neck joint? I get about 5% of them that are broken just by removing from the build plate or while trying to loosen the joint for articulation.
To clarify, is the neck joint failing at the top or at the bottom? If it's at the bottom, it might be slightly weaker where the filaments change. The new version will be stronger either way, but this is good info for me when making future designs :)
I'll make a few updates to strengthen the neck joint + fix a few other issues I found and then I'll let you know when I re-upload it. I'll keep it at the current size though because it's cuter than I expected when it's that small (this should be roughly the size of the end of your thumb ~37 mm). If you continue to have issues with this new version, then I would suggest scaling it up.
What slicer/printer are you using for this?
Thanks for letting me know!
Well, this is embarrassing. I actually made a few mistakes prepping this model for upload.
