down loaded all the files how would i go about converting these to work in foam as i prefer working in foam rather than card
You would have to edit the files. I've never worked with foam before personally.
You would have to get the pep designer and modify to your preference

Believe me, it is complicated. even, if you will unfold it for 2m (5,5-6,5 ft) it is a lot of hard work, materials and time. Think about it, before start, see more threads and pictures. Cheers.Sounds very complicated gunner do a mark 21 first to get another suit under. Belt before trying something that big
i have pep version (without flaps) for 8,5 ft (2,60m) unfolded 70% (A4 size). can give you now, but you need to unfold the rest 30%. or, you can wait few weeks, i will done unfolding and Shadeling will share file in 1st post.Hello and thanks you for all your hard work and file release. As you read this I am preparing my spare bedroom/workshop to build this in foam. At your present scale what is human size for it so I can scale it up to be aprox 8ft tall on completion. Wanna get size right on first try. to much work for a do over
i just finished main part of chest, and its gonna be really huge. however, your idea is interesting, it can be worked. also, i think, you need to think about support details on the frame and some moving parts. like this:shoulder skeletal support identified at lowes

I'll do the same for the elbow with the swivel attached to the forearm for 40-60 dagree rotation
there will be an opening in the inside of the forearm where the levers for finger control for the hand which will not rotate
That's the idea anyway, trying to plan and price everything out before I start construction

have you watched Xrobots last episode? i think its optimal idea. blue part come up from the back. brown part is in the blue part. left and right part will come from left and right sides, near the shoulder. all movements in circular orbits.
can i ask you? what do you think about HB hand? remember episode of fighting HB and Hulk, look:I love Xrobots work
