Modular Mech project update: The LBK-12 "Lunchpack", with swappable "Lunchboxes" in the right torso
Test printed torso and a blank hunch, just a friction fit right now but it's a lot more solid than I expected! I didn't even model in a tolerance gap, the model's a straight 0-clearance fit (only beveled edges to help align the pieces), but the printer handled it fine. (Bambu A1m w/0.2mm nozzle using PETG HF filament)
Considering: -Small notch+catch for more positive retention (May wear out over time?) -Dovetail slot (Longer term, more positive friction fit, requires high precision printing) -Cutouts for magnets in hunch+body (Probably best, though involves the most prep for the user)
As-is I imagine the piece should be primed + painted while assembled, leaving meet surfaces as clean plastic so as not to risk paint interfering with the fit.
Oh, and here's a look at the finished body now, just on to swappable weapons packs.
Each limb is still a separate segment so I can repose at will, I plan on arranging a variety of poses in the final file pack, as well as model a Lunchbox for every variant that only changes the hunch lunch.
