<div class = "text-justify"> Hi guys! <br><br> Today I will try to make a c-joint to make the knee detachable. So here are updates on Project Devil Gundam! </div> ### Prep Work <div class = "pull-right"><img src = "https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmcRSd7cvK6RiLet2ByS3fqmT13PA5gZRGURjve5ngKaAR/20180406_Project%20Devil%20Gundam%2001.png"></div> <div class = "text-justify"> This is the master copy for the connector. Well, kind of half of it. I've prepared more copies of the complete version based on this design. <br><br> I filethe surface to make sure its very smooth then finish with sanding stick. <br><br> Since I'm going to cement this pla plates to the inner thigh I need to make sure there are no bumps. <br><br> Also, any bumps on the other side of the pla plates will affect the fittings of the knee. </div> ### C-Joints <div class = "pull-left"><img src = "https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmZPsZ1QnRPu2hgKPA135txVnsUzaxG3yQ12nU1wdVD9YM/20180406_Project%20Devil%20Gundam%2002.png"></div> <div class = "text-justify"> Now, the idea of a c-joint is very simple but if you remember my concerns I mentioned before. <br><br> If the c-joint too big it won't have a good amount of friction to it. Meaning it won't be able to hold certain pose. <br><br> However, if the c-joint too small/tight it will be hard to get it in place. Even though it will provide a good friction for the joints to hold a pose. <br><br> The trick is to balance these 2 things which I will do manually later after using some hobby knife I would assume. </div> ### Letting the Plastic to Bond <div class = "pull-right"><img src = "https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmTqTWBh2Kg3FrZgqUfZmD8k94VtS2se5pJtMfweUYeGto/20180406_Project%20Devil%20Gundam%2003.png"></div> <div class = "text-justify"> Cementing is pretty straight forward with this one. I use both regular and thin cement. Which give me strong bond and quick setting on the pla connector. <br><br> I will let this cure overnight then do the other thigh as well. After that I will start detailing the knee. And so this is my updates for today on this Devil Gundam x Neue Ziel Project. <br><br> Keep on building! Keep on steeming! Have a nice day! </div> ### Quick access tutorial: 1.
