I am using PLA filament printing a pair of brown shoes so that I can print a pair of shoes for my figurine. However, I face the issues of the fitting my figurine’s feet directly into the shoes. What should I do?
Have you done a minimum tolerance where the shoe fits into the figurine? FDM printers tend to be slightly inaccurate. What nozzle are you using? What size is it?
IMO same thing you’d do with IRL shoes - they need to move to fit your foot in there. TPU!
Or if TPU is not an option, take some inspiration from other rigid shoes:
Note the very shallow ankle and heel. Very near to a slipper
Divide the shoes into two parts: the sole and the upper part. Use the slicer to make small joints. Then you can either stick them together or if you’re sure, glue them together.
First select the cutting tool and then “add connectors”.
Place the joints, and the matching holes will be generated automatically on the counterpart.
To measure the general size, you can use the virtual measuring tape:
