Summary

A fun little robot that prints in one complete piece. Both the arms and legs move. I made him to put in my son's party bags. Robot Mk8 is a work in progress but is fun to play with right now. His feet are compatible with lego bricks.

He stands 60 mm tall from tip of antenna to bottom of feet.

I plan to make more dials for his chest and maybe make his head and hands turn.

Inspired by jcubed111's Robot Keychain Accessory http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:384213

Update: 10th September 2016
Added a model for a 4 times taller robot. He's 298 grams and takes ~12 hours to print at 350 micron resolution. I didn't scale the fit of the movable limbs so they are all very floppy but he still stands up. He gets a lot of attention. If anyone has trouble with limbs sticking on the original scale version, I recommend scaling the model up a little. That should do the trick if fiddling with the fit parameters is getting you nowhere.

Update: 7th August 2016

  1. Added option for random dial needle angle (set to -1). Angles between -28 and +28 degrees work well.
  2. Added option for hole for key ring. Hole size not changeable with customizer yet.
  3. Added rotating head joint.
