I released the files for this 3d-printed hand-puppet head, you can download the STL files at
https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5222543 or alternatively at
https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/126203-puppet-head-base-version-83-fantasy-crowThis 3d-printed head was made to build an animatronic fantasy bird hand puppet. The lower jaw is movable. I included the files for the movable eyes and eyelids - they are compatible with my other eyelid mechanisms (if you do not want to print the eyes you can alternatively use 4cm diameter ping pong balls). The head is meant to be printed with lightweight PLA.
The files are all scaled to make a 16cm wide hand puppet head.
