This 3D printed head contains servo-driven mechanisms to move the eyes left and right (but not up and down) and the lower jaw opens and closes. The neck mechanism enables the head to rotate and nod up and down (but not tilt sideways).
Uses 2x SPRINGRC SR431 servos to drive the neck and 2x SPRINGRC SR311 servos for the eyes and jaw. (You should be fine as long as you get two 25kg.cm servos for the neck and two 15kg.cm servos for the eyes and jaw. Your servos don't have to be SPRINGRC, they can be whatever brand you like.
You'll also need 5 cupboard door magnets to hold her detachable faceplate and forehead on.
I printed the cranium using 0.15mm layer height, but it took me 24 hours! If you don't mind having more visible ridging, and want a faster print time, then by all means use a coarser setting. I used 0.1mm (fine) layer height for her faceplate to give her smooth looking "skin".
Print time and dimensions below are for all of the head parts summed together.
