I am so happy I found the academy page. I am just starting out with leatherworking and already have a desire to combine my passion for 3d printing into this as well. This is perfect.
Wow that's so awesome 3D printers are useful it helps you reduce minimal cost and representation of items or armor you want to produce with certain material. Also you can use it to make a scale model of projects you want to figure out.
I have seen videos of making custom mannequins for armor customers. The buyer wears a tightly-fitting long-sleeve shirt & pants (tight yoga clothes or pajamas?) that are wrapped in layers of stiff plastic duct tape. The shirt and pants are cut and removed from the buyer, and then the cuts closed up with more duct tape. The openings at the sleeves, neck and ankles are also sealed with duct tape. The upper and lower halves have skeletons of wood or PVC pipes and then the halves are filled with spray insulation that greatly expands in the air. This stiff mannequin is used to fit the armor parts. - Body Double! Make A Duct Tape Mannequin ua-cam.com/video/EdFDJ6FCeo0/v-deo.html

My problem with this method is that it gets my pins sticky.
How much filament did it take?
3:53 Funny thing, I'm actually prototyping my own adjusted dress form. However, I am still trying to replicate the adjusting dial.
I am jealous.
I want one so bad…
If you don't 3D print a dragon and make armor for it, I'd be a little disappointed.
How much for one of them printer
Wonder why people wonh sell these. Mannequins are insanely costly
Damn, so bad print quality! Even light direction can't hide it. It is definitely not for everyone.
