I like the hand that you base the design on. Are you planning to use that hand in an InMoov robot ? Does the fingers work well or are they to soft ? I have tried to print with Filaflex, but my printer is a bowden type of printer so it didn't work well.

Thanks. The fingers are pretty strong, I would say stronger than the Inmoov fingers. In general the filaflex filament is very strong, almost unbreakable.

The arm will not be mounted to the Inmoov. It's just an idea and may result in a complete new robot. Hope to get the elow motor back to work. Planing to use similar motors for the shoulder.

Filaflex is not easy to print for my printer as well. Had to make a small adapter to avoid the gap between hotend and idler. Also need to print at 260 degrees celsius and very low speed, about 3x slower than ABS.
