Been working on a coom figure for a while, took a blender model for animation and edited it until I could work with it. The second prototype was fine, but brittle resin and me not knowing much about action-figure-making caused manny issues.
I'm using .25mm of clearance between pieces, except in ball-socket joints, which get .2mm. Is this too much? A few hinge articulations are now too loose while others are still perfect.
I am making OpenSCAD files for the hinge-ball joints and ball-joints, the hinged ones are already done, I only need to wait for the resin to arrive so I can do stress test the pins, I suspect that I might need to add a chamfer at the root of the pins, but I will first see how well the Resione M58 holds.
My current design problem is that I want to make the ball-sockets modular, to be able to completely remove the socket from the piece in case I need to replace it or change it for soma different design without having to print the entire piece.
I am not experienced enough to make screws, and I think it is a bit overcomplicated, and snap-in walls also seem too much and a bit weak. Would hobby magnets be a good answer? It is a 1/9 figure (20cm once completed), the prototype (no clothing, nor accessories) weighs 80g, but the hair alone is 25g of the total weight.
