HI all,
I would like to ask you help regarding "How to model interchangeable parts to make customizable 3d printed object".
I'm looking to create a sort of LEGO character type of model , where usually , head , torso and leg are separated pieces that you can join toghether .
I understand that in this case the white plastic material is much advisable cause is strong enough to resist pressure and the final model needs to have an appropriate gap between parts of 0.5 mm.
My problem is that all the different alternatives of torso , leg and head , that can be picked to customize my model , are colored with different type of clothes , just painted on the plane surface of the model.
I understand the only material that supports color information is "sandstone", which unfortunately can break under pressure.
Can I work with sandstone to make this kind of LEGO project?
How much should be the gap in this case ?
Have you tried other solutions for a similar project?
Can you please send me a link to tutorial that can help me develop this project correctly?
thanks in advance I really appreciate your help.
Regards
Guido
