3D model description

In a continuing effort to make both an exoskeleton and a biped robot I decided to construct a space frame using 3d printed and carbon fiber rods.

3D printing settings

The construction is pretty straight forward. Print in ABS and drill out the tubes until just wider than the carbon fiber rods.

Cut the carbon rods until no longer than 15cm.

Check how to cut carbon fiber safely first!

Stick the base bits to the tube parts using ABS/acetone glue.

Stick carbon rods into tubes with ABS/acetone glue.

Leave to dry.

You can also smooth the surface of the printed parts with acetone.
