Description

This is the fourth themed version of my original moveable figure. The figure reuses a lot of the parts from the original model. To avoid duplicate models I have only included the different STLs in the individual STLs section. I have however included the complete part STLs to save having to download from two separate models and I have also included a list of parts that you will need from the original below. The heads have only been tested at full scale and were printed on my Prusa Mk3S with MMU2S. However you may be able to print the features separately to the head and press fit them together. For the Granny hair you will unfortunately have to use supports. I found good results with automatic support painting and default organic supports within Prusaslicer.

Additional notes:

To add designs to the body you can just use the modifiers in Prusa slicer and carry out manual filament swaps. Some example .3MFs of this are available in the original file.

Additional parts needed from the original:

Grandma

  • Arms
  • Arm pins
  • Hands
  • Head top (if not using multi coloured head)
  • Head bottom
  • Hips
  • Legs

Grandad

  • Arms
  • Arm pins
  • Body
  • Hands
  • Head top (if not using multi coloured head)
  • Head bottom
  • Hips
  • Legs

Print instructions:

All files have been printed and tested using various brands and colours of PLA/PLA+ on my Prusa Mk4, Prusa Mk3S with MMU2S and my frankenstein 180x180mm bed slinger with the following settings:

  • Nozzle size 0.4mm
  • Layer height 0.2mm
  • 2 perimeters

I haven't found any other setting to affect the fit and function of the assemblies however for the head it is beneficial to observe where the seam placement will end up in the slice preview, I typically set the seam to rear for the heads. The head to neck fit is dependent on your extrusion multiplier calibration. The default settings for both of my Prusa's provide the desired fit.

Assembly instructions:

Please refer to the assembly instructions in the original model.
