The male no-crack adapters are working quite well. I'm debating making another tweak to the thicknesses of a few areas. It works, but can I make it work
even better
? Is it worth it? I haven't decided yet. The answer usually ends up being "yes" but we'll see. Maybe I'm fussing over small stuff too much.
I still need to take measurements and make adjustments for the creation of a female version.
Also, a minor update on the Joe legs on MTF waists adapters... I am having trouble getting consistent fit with the waist balls so I still don't have a version that is solid enough for me to feel comfortable putting it out for sale. The print tolerances in this material (plus the material's properties and ability to be compressed) are making that "tight enough not to wobble, but not so tight it might crack the MTF torso open" balance is proving to be a challenge. I am not abandoning the effort, but my last print - which was supposed to be the victory lap - ended up fitting too loose. Kind of a bummer, and a setback. I have an idea for a new ball type that might help bridge the gap, so I'll be trying that next along with a series of different size "standard" waist balls to see if I can get a winner. At this point, I am tweaking in the thousandths of an inch range looking for success.
Stay tuned!
