How to Scale 3d Printed Helmets! Perfect Sized Helmets Everytime!

Ойын-сауық

I always see the question on how do I scale my helmets to be 3d printed! Its always scary to 3d print a helmet and it not be sized right. You dont want to waste plastic or time. If you run a 3d printing business people may return if the helmets not sized perfect. In this tutorial I show exactly how to scale your 3d printed helmets to get the perfect size everytime using a free file from an awesome creator by the name of Budwin and here is the link to his file. www.thingiverse.com/thing:488...

    For those who want the math to be simplified to make this quicker: Take your circumference and divide it by the default helmet circumference. The example in this video: 24 divided by 22 = 1.091 which is 109.1%

    For those who might be wondering what "Axis Short" and "Axis Long" are on the head models, "Axis Short" is the length between the left and right side of the head in inches. And "Axis Long" is the length from the Parietal Bone to the ridge of the eyebrow if you measured it in a straight line.

    I personally like using Armorsmith because it's for the entire body. but this is a great free way to scale if you just want the helmet. Also if you're trying to line up multiple parts, just do it off of the build plate in Cura. That way they can float where ever you put them and they won't snap to the build plate.

    You could also measure around your head and in cura you can see how big the inside of the helmet is, so you can snap scale it. Also armorsmith is really good if you want to fit a whole suit. I usually eyeball the helmets but don't eyeball a full suit (from experience).

    What I would do is get the circumference of the head in three areas. One around the neck, one around the ears and nose, and one around the jawline and the top of the head. Divide all of the measurements by pii and focus on sizing the head to fit the inner chamber of the helmet. Add a 1/4 of an inch for padding and that's how I did it. That or invest in calipers. Also use a fabric measuring tape.

    Super accurate logic for sure, my original goal with this video was to help people sizing for customers, and If you think you are getting customers to send you that detailed of information 😂 I can't even trust them to measure their head half the time

    @@SaturdayMorningProps I get it. That's why you provide diagrams on where to wrap it. But of course, the value is inaccurate when it comes to self measurement. So the hat method and referencing to the 3d heads provides a sure guide for accuracy.

    i've been messing around with this, but it doesn't really help. i can't see all area's and it seems it fits but after 20 minutes of twisting and turning the buildplate around i notice a bit of clipping and realise the eyes don't align and when i do align the eyes the helmet needs to be feck'n huge to the point it looks like it could fit 2 extra chins. i'm gonna keep looking for a more reliable way

    If you load it in to 3d builder you can do an X-ray view to see through the helmet, but also it could be the helmet file you got is shaped for the character or cartoon it's from not and actual person. If you try to scale an accurate MegaMan helmet it will be super wide when scaled

    Any tips for a more rounded head? Or is that no different? Also, thank you for this video. I just tested it out on the Batman cowl and my test ring is near perfect. Only downside is that the side of my head is a bit wider than the model since I’m more rounded. One of the best ways to fit a print! Especially since I’m more of a visual type of person 😂
