- I designed and printed my very own Cosplay Caliper based on Nikko Industries foam concept. This makes scaling files for 3D printing much much easier!

Uncle Jessy I'm currently working on a helmet for a school project, this is gonna help a lot!
i cant even begin to mention how humbling this is. Thank you Uncle Jessy!
The man himself! Twas an awesome idea! Thanks for sharing it with everyone!
Uncle Jessy hahaha it's all about giving back to the community just like you man!
This type of caliper is used primarily for sculptors who do busts/head sculpts. Great idea from foam to plastic!
Just printed these last night. Thanks for the file. Looking forward to utilizing them for masks I find.
I actually have a vintage set of calipers made for measuring head size. Been using it for a while to help scale. Onething i find it once you have a head measurement, get a model of a human head, scale it to those dimensions, and then put it inside your models to check.
Shhhhhhh .... dont spoil my next video I'm working on ;)
much love for this man, been a little gun shy about doing any large helmet prints on my CR-10 just due to not wanting to use up a lot of material only to have something not fit right, sure these will help, so big thanks to you Nikko and thank you for 3D printafying his idea. =D
Do it man and let me know how it goes!
Thanks for making this 3d Printable! Nice work
Another great idea Jesse, thanks for sharing.
Just printed this on the anycubic mega zero 2.0. Omg thank you, exactly what I needed.
Awesome, thanks for designing these for us
Here's the file :D

@UncleJessy feel free to delete this comment, after you update the description :D
Thanks man, not sure why it wasnt showing up in the description. - no need to delete ;) Thanks for checking it out
didnt think I needed these until I realy needed them! thanks
SUBBED! Nice job man, jsut watched your sizing video before this one, nice to see your production quality go up!
Haha thanks! Hopefully continuing to get better and better. Appreciate the sun!
Thank you so much you blessed man. This is gonna be so awesome.
you can add a protractor + leaner ruler at the bottom and tightening screw so you can easy get the measurement in one process
Alix bnbly I was just talking with one of my buddies about this. Going to see if I can get it updated to include this
Just got a filament 3D printer to make a Darth Revan helmet this item is gonna help a ton! Thank you so much:)
This is a GREAT idea, I am facing a huge problem though, whenever my piece fully prints removing the caliper arm with the lettering is extremely difficult. Was trying to see if anyone found a work around
If you aren't able to build this, you can also get a wheel rim width caliper. Same concept, and they usually have measurements on them.
I'm glad I'm not the only one that put my head in between strange places just to get the measurements. I put my head in between the edge of the table and the back of a chair just to find it lol
Thanks my friend for these, wanted to make a Mandalorian helmet for kids and I couldn't think of how to measure their heads - this is so perfect! (I was running around with a ruler and my hand and holding it up to their heads ... )
Im a Mandalorian cosplayer.... this is going to help on armor and helmets greatly.
I didn't realize pros used TinkerCAD, I only found it because my tech-ed teacher showed it to us so we could use it for assignments, I always thought it was good enough to do better, more professional, things.
Great vid dude!
Thanks. I’ve seen some amazing files that were created in tinkercad. It’s a really powerful cad tool to get started with. Also covers a lot of my basic design needs
Not sure how many comments you reply to, but this is worth a shot! A while I commented on an old video of yours asking where I could find the Marvel Legends Cap shield or Iron Man helmet as they seem to be now off the market!
could you make a video to explain how to figure out what size you need to shrink a downloaded mask in order to make it fit comfortably? As in measuring the inside points of a model so it fits
Great idea. Unfortunately the STL is too large to print on my Ender 3 and scaling down to fit creates parts that are too flimsy to stay together.
thank you uncle Jessy...
nice easy model to get you back into it, digging it.
Haha sadly took me way to long to originally design/make/print some prototypes, recording the video here was a breeze. Slowly getting better
got to start somewhere dude, it'd probably take me just as long if not longer. keep it up
For those without a huge print bed you can get large inside/outside plastic calipers pretty cheaply, not cheaper than filament cost but cheap enough. I got a set with markings up to 350mm (14"ish) for £6.80 on eBay.
Christopher Pearson awesome!
Ay this is gonna help me alot man i have not even tried to print a helmet
john doe do it!!!
Thank You. Have you tried the tevo tornado yet ? I picked up one and once i got all the settings right i havent had any problems. love it
Brian Howerton Poor Boy Garage awesome! Mine has a really bad running issue. I have another that I need to setup and test out
OH MAN! Where was this about a week ago when i printed my Thor Helmet... lol. Awesome..
;) Time to reprint it I guess haha
What is the Cura setting you were referring to for the smooth top layer ?
These are great! Only recommendation would be to use the round bottom to include measurements without having to use another tool like a ruler.
4 years old but perfect for someone just starting in the hobby! 48% in my ender 5 plus so your stl is literally drag and drop!
great idea ...this has actually been a common tool for the pepakura community
I want to make a set for myself, but the biggest 3D printer I own has a 6" x 9" build plate, would I have to cut the model in half to make them fit on my build plate?
hello a bit off topic from this video but i looking for help with supports when printing tpu armor, im printing the first order stormtrooper armor in tpu but having issues with supports ie the chest and ab pieces. im using cura slicer and cr10 s4 i have 4mm nozzle all stock printer which prints really well on tpu with 280 temp 50 bed 50 speed 2 to 3 layer hieght. but still looking for ideal settings for great prints. any help is greatly appreciated thanks
I have a question what do i measure to get my circumference around the helmet to get 32 inches
Uncle Jessy, do you have the calipers without the writing in the middle? Every time I try to print the middle always get mess up. I have the Anet E-12.
Once we have the measurements how do we adjust or scale the size of a helmet to fit
This use by sculptures to sculpt statues of people to get measurements right. It's been used for Centurys.
I love this idea and have something like it but I can’t get the measurements correct, what am I doing wrong?
Nikko is also a veteran ;)
Now i can finally get correct measures for my cat's helmet! Thanks man :)
thanks for checking it out man!
i got an ender 3 not as big as cr 10 can i print it on there? lol
What do I do if I want to make a giant helmet way bigger than my head and almost bigger than my body?
I have 2 3d printers but I think I'll use the door method
how do they work?
If I change the size, does it still work then?
Wheres a video where you convert the measurements into slicers
i just printed this and it never joined together, any tips on how to print the pieces to fit together right? i printed everything at 70% to fit on ender 3 v2 but the plug couldn't fit through anything and i broke one of the arms in half trying to put it together lol
Once I get my measurements how am I able to rescale the helmet to the specific measurements for me? I don't know any way in Cura to do so and Mesh Mixer isn't around anymore
Could you still print this on an Ender 3?
This is a great idea. Is there a reason I can't see the link to the caliper files? I can see all the other links but this one seems blank
www.thingiverse.com/thing:2892755
Sorry about that. It's updated now. Not sure why the link wasnt showing up.
I have an idea for a helmet not sure how to do it can you help me?
How do I print this on an Ender 3 pro?
Hello. Sorry to bother you with such a dorky question but I'm a dork. I printed the caliper but my lord it is wafer thin. Is it supposed to be that thin, or did I do something wrong? I didn't change a thing in Cura except temp. HELP!!!!
For cosplay: how much extra space would you calculate for padding and ease of movement?
Could you link the video that you play at the beginning
Pinned comment above / link in the description to Nikko's channel ;) Def sub
Uncle Jessy yes the channel is but not the video
Cain Harris here it is ua-cam.com/video/8p0iqI_qWK8/v-deo.html
So ear to ear is x axis
Nose to back of head is y axis
Chin to top of head is z
Am I correct?
how did you get ironing so smooth mine always leaves lines.
Here are the Cura Ironing settings that I used (first time using this)... wish I remember where I found these settings
Enable Ironing - Checked
Iron Only Highest Layer - Unchecked
Ironing Pattern - ZigZag
Ironing Line Spacing - 0.1
Ironing Flow - 10.0%
Ironing Inset - 0.2
Ironing Speed - 20.0
Ironing Acceleration - 500
Ironing Jerk - 20
amazing Jessy thx!
O_O they sell calipers like these at most art stores... they're widely used in sculpting.
The "narrow blade-like" calipers look like Wolverine claws from some of the older comics. Reuse that model! ;)
ackthbbft 😬 stick around to the very end of the video #snikt
LOL I sent my comment too soon, obviously!
Can someone make me a set of these? I could use them but don't own a 3d printer.
I just made one out of lego technic.
PLEASE!!! DO THE STORMBREAKER FROM INFINITY WAR
Octa Burgos 😬
Hi
Sup!
A new way?
"Cosplay Caliper File ➜" *crickets* :P

I was totally gonna print these until you said about using a door and a ruler.
Samuel Williams the door and ruler works great for ear to ear measurement... doesn’t work well for any of the others unfortunately.
Bro why is your face so red? @Uncle Jessy
5:55 Scale your head!? That sounds painful lol.
i didn't know Nazi Germany was cosplay obsessed
