Fixing this Jaw Hinge

Because man I didnt get it right the first two times lol.

◾First go: tried to sculpt it into the TPU base. It didn't really work. The point where the jaw bends was too close to the front of the base.

◾Send try: Cut the jaw, built a hinge with PLA, bolted that on. Worked a little better, but still wasn't working right.

Third time's the charm?

... Read moreCreating a functional jaw hinge is a crucial step in fursuit making, often requiring multiple attempts to achieve the desired movement. Many hobbyists initially experiment with materials such as TPU which, while flexible, may not provide the stability needed for precise movement. On the other hand, PLA, being sturdier, offers better support during the hinge construction, even though it might require adjustments. To enhance the success rate, consider incorporating specialized hinge designs or exploring various attachment methods to allow for smoother articulation. Engaging with community forums like #fursuit and #fursuitmaking can also provide valuable insights and tips from seasoned creators. Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned fursuit maker, learning from the shared experiences of others can significantly simplify the process and lead to a more rewarding outcome.
