Have you tried 3D Studio from Autodesk instead?
No. Why? I will do a search for it. I have Sketchup Style Builder and Layout. They installed when I downloaded the make version. I don't use them. Sketchup has failed me for a 3D printing program. Drawing, yes: Printing, no.

Thus far, the right lower arm has been printed. I ended up using the files from Thingiverse rather than the ones that I had drawn. My Prints from my Sketchup drawings were fine with the exception that the holes didn't line up well and I couldn't put a shaft thru them. So I used the Thingiverse files which printed well.
I bought a Hatchbox printer for around $1K from Amazon. A spool of filament is around $30. one is enough for the arm.
This arm is as far as I got. Nt 3d Modeling skills stopped this project in its tracks, and the modeling companies that have been contacted fell short. good luck.
There would be a lot of finish work for a printed Endo. The printed texture needs to be sanded and primered to a smooth finish. That is a lot of work, but no different than if you had bought a resin kit. Those resin kits require a lot of finishing on their own.
The difference is that I don't want it chromed. I have never really liked the chromed look. I would be happier if it were a metallic grey with some deep weathering.
I just want to know why this is such an impossible task? Why can't a modeler model a skeleton?

It's a professional level program, I've used it for years since high school (DOS based lol), and found that for modelling in 3D for printing, it has yet to let me down. Also way easier to learn than Blender.
