Zaku

thingiverse

As requested by friend, this modified version is published before 100% completed. Even it's 90% only, you can still play with it. This model is based on the Zaku model in a CD of "Gundam Virtual Modeler Pro" from Bandai, which comes with 3D model in Shade format. I have tried to convert them to STL directly, but those STL cannot be printed. So I have created this Zaku model in SolidWorks, and now it's not only printable, and you can play with it. Enjoy it. (can you find what is missing in this model?) Update: 2015-05-06: 2 more STL files (SK1-Left and SK1-Right) were added, so it's now 92% completed. But I have not yet update the assembly instruction, can you guess how to install them? 2 x M2x8 rod is required. 2015-05-16: Add SK2.STL, SK3-Left.STL and SK3-Right.STL. It's almost completed, except the tube on foot. But there has difficulty to add the tube here as it may block the movement of the foot. So, this version just stop here, and I will try to improve it in next version. I also have problem to install the rod for SK3, it cannot use the metal rod, but it can be fixed by using a 1.75mm filament. This is just the first version try using SolidWorks to build the robot, the next version will include more details on it. Instructions You may need some M2 rod to assembly this model. Some of them are optional, you can skip them (already mark as green). If you don't have M2 rod, you may try to use the 1.75mm Filament.
