Oh that's pretty smart -- using the VRChat avatar's head. I actually made a VR headset stand using my avatar's head a while back. bsky.app/profile/leoa...

Thanks! I ended up using PLA for my print. I bought TPU but figured I'd do a test print with PLA -- turned out pretty well! As for the ed head, that took two rolls to print 😂
Your base looks very good! Did you modeled it yourself? Are you making an otter head? and... what's the top left part for..?

Thank you! Yeah the issue I ran into if that after I pinned the concave and convex edges. As I sew, excess fabric seems to build up because the sewing is flattening the curved edge, and that disrupts the alignment.
I’ll try lifting the pressure foot and turn the work!

But in all seriousness, there's not much alternatives to quest though -- dealing with Steam VR headset is whole other can of worms...

That’s what I’m trying to do now! I’m using PLA because I already have them.

That's awesome! Do you have any good resources/tutorials you recommend? I'm trying to learn how to make suits as well. Would love to hear your thoughts!

Hey it was great meeting you at ANW PNW meetup! I just notice your WIP posts, did you make the suit yourself? That's incredible!
