The hell is up with that super magnet lol. I'm getting more excited to see how the figure will get done.

I know, right?!!! Amazing! I'm a little concerned that it will be so strong that folks might break or damage the body parts, or paint job, when trying to pull the magnets off! }D

My printers can only handle up to ABS. I need a printer that can print nylon...

Work in progress -Prototype Magnetic/Mechanic Hybrid Joint: All parts, except the magnet sphere and the fist, are 3D printed. I'm still tweaking this version, may even get a smaller magnetic sphere for it. This one is SRC sized, and my plan is to make it so it can still use the Rocket Punch effects. Of course, it can be scaled up, and it will be actually easier and more forgiving to work at a larger scale. }D

UPDATE...
My SLA Printer went to shit. The damn thing will print the brim and nothing else. The Customer Support team sucks ass. They keep telling me to calibrate the printer, which I've done 13 times already. The first printer I got, which was destroyed by UPS, is supposed to be ready to be shipped back to me. However, who knows when that's gonna happen, as it's the same customer support team that is handling that too.

Seems like the printer will be here tomorrow. Keeping my finger crossed that it doesn't get destroyed by the carrier... like last time. }|

The printer just got delivered. The box looks like a South American's slum home-made soccer ball. I'm gonna test it out, and hope nothing important got screwed up inside... like the laser calibration. }[

Printing a very small file... still takes over an hour. }|

The printer is OKAY!!! Tough machine! When I saw the condition of the box, I was almost sure it had gotten screwed up. Now to clean up those mechanics, and on with the show! }D

......... The box looks like a South American's slum home-made soccer ball.............. }[ DAYUM! Those neo-whatever magnets are really STRONG! Do you think they'll also work for the figures to hold hand accessories such as weapons? This is really impressive stuff you guys are doing. If I watch the work in progress it would be a "spoiler" for me, so I'll just wait until see the finalized figure. zozo-mag

a 100% 3D printed SRC arm. All it needs is sanding and it will be good to go. }D
