NCR Ranger Helmet Done
Added 2017-03-05 18:33:33 +0000 UTCGreat news guys, the NCR Ranger is now done and in printable pieces. I have included the files in the video dropbox folder and added the link below for you to download it. As you guys have supported me only you will have access to this file first for a while before I upload it to MyMiniFactory.

This is version of the Helmet is without the space to put in fans, I will look at fixed placment for fans and space for a battery pack as I think it will make it more bearable to wear for extended periods of time. If you think of anymore improvements that might help then please tell me to update the files.
Comments
I normally go for 3 to 4 perimeters with around 30 % infill for the main body of the helmet and then 3 perimeters at 15% for the other parts. I cannot really give any advice on supports as this just dependant on how you decide to print it.

2020-03-08 00:08:45 +0000 UTCDo you have any recommendations for print settings, supports etc? When I import the parts in my slicers, they are very weirdly oriented to the build platform :)

2017-03-28 02:01:09 +0000 UTCNot with the files as they are. I make all my files to print on a 200mm^3 build volume. What you would have to do is slice the files in half using something like meshmixer.

2017-03-21 21:12:12 +0000 UTCSilly question! Just starting out 3d printing. Will i be able to print the whole file in pieces on a printer with a 120x120x120 print bed :)?

2017-03-21 19:05:14 +0000 UTCWell the lenses would be one example of lights there's also the bits on the side of the helmet, there's usually two lights added there. I think I'll go ahead and start printing this and mod it as I go along. Just need to work out scaling

2017-03-11 09:13:10 +0000 UTCI have now changed the files so download the new zip file should be fine. At roughly eye level the inside is 275mm front to back and 228mm side to side.

2017-03-10 22:07:24 +0000 UTCBy lights you mean for the lens right?. At the moment I'll see what people do with it as I mod the file to suit what I would do, it might not be the same as what other might do. I rather see what is the best way chosen by actual cosplayers and help then do it that way.

2017-03-10 22:01:12 +0000 UTCI know, will be awesome to see and great, please leave any feedback if you have any problems.

2017-03-10 21:57:02 +0000 UTCLooks amazing! Definitely putting this on my printer ASAP to mess around with. Within the files however "Chin Rivot" seems like it has part of the helmet still remaining. I've currently got another NCR Ranger helmet but its a bit too small on my head to wear comfortably. What is the size of the hole for sticking your head in and what is the ID of the helmet?

2017-03-06 22:25:12 +0000 UTC<3 This will make an ideal replacement for my current one that is very difficult to wear.. between the heat and fogging of the lenses it only ever made it out once. Great work. Will the version with fans include space for adding the lights to the side of the helmet? Also what's the default size of helmet?
