I have just finished a print of the Rapiro robot each part of the head took 18+ hrs and used 145 grms of filament, over half of which was support material. I lost count of the hours used to complete the whole project but I had to do two services while doing it.
I used a whole reel of filament and all my patience to complete but all the parts fitted after clearing the support which was nearly as long as the printing also all the 12 servo’s slotted into place with no adjustments.
I did a lot of checks as to shrinkage and used PLA at 100.6%

“but I had to do two services while doing it.”
Which ones?

28/05/2015 at 2:58 pm #18665@doncolley How do you print Upper and Lower Body ? Last time I wanted to print this Model too, but I have to shrink it. I though that I could shrink and flip the model (for the head) then put it back at normal (100%), but for the upper and lower body, I did not find how I could print it, too much support needed, and yours look very clean.
thanks

+1!
11/06/2015 at 2:46 pm #18988Rapido was printed in PLA/PHA at 100.7% with support where necessary. I used Meshmixer set up for Robox to get the parts in the correct orientation to fit, all the electronic bits fitted, the worst part was cleaning off the support it took nearly as long as the printing
Roll on the two filament head so I can use easy to remove supports
