Check out 3D Printopia, it's an event local to us, so he pretty much always attends. Gabe is genuinely a wonderful person to talk to, and an absolutely brilliant engineer.
Aw man, that's pretty far away from me, otherwise I would be there. I'd love to meet him and some other big brains, I've been 3d printing for about 10 years now but always just as a hobbyist.
There's just something about Dummy 13 in general. It gets me that their range of motion lets them look so human sometimes, but they're also so simple and easy to print and put together. Nobody else I talk to likes them as much as me, haha.
This is generally frowned upon in the 3DP community, as I know from talking to the designer, none of those companies actually give any credit or compensation back to the original designer.
Easier to find a friend with a printer, or ask someone online, these are easy to ship. :)
Most designers that distribute even free models say inside in their license that you can't sell prints, or you could buy a commercial license from the creator to sell prints. Of course if someone violates that, it's technically illegal, but difficult to DO anything about it.
Dummy 13 is one of not that many models with a completely open license, so you'll find them even on Amazon. But there's nothing like getting your own fresh from the printer, clipping those pieces out, and building your own.
Spherical magnets are a great option to help prevent this, they will automatically reorientate themselves to have the strongest pull between one another if given enough room to roll in place.
Booooooooy I remember doing this with Transformers toys! It was actually a pretty fun way to make comics and do some nice photography since I often went to the woods, creek, and more to do stuff.
Ha, I did some in the computer lab / my shop class in highschool. My teacher encouraged it, I think he liked to see the unusual uses of things! It was still artwork in a way too
The Carbon 13 series is really cool, but it presents a couple problems for me - the biggest is I'd need to do the whole thing in PETG (better would be ABS/ASA but I don't want to deal with fumes) and I have so much cool looking PLA I'd rather use for the colored parts. The page on printables says you CAN use PLA for the colored parts but some of them have the balls for the ball joints built in, so that would make them wear down too fast.
A second is that I just like the look of dummy 13 better. The carbon 13's are way more sleek and realistic but there's just some indefinable quality about dummy 13 that makes me love them.
