After some time I had other occupations I finally returned to my project of a posing amigurumi.
The last idea I developed works. Not as good as 3mm copper wire though.

tightening the screws I can get enough friction to hold the pose. I also added a magnet to the feet.
Now that I found this way which is pretty good, I bought an air conditioner for my living room. The man that came to install it, showed interest in my work, as he saw the elfoids and the 3D printer working.
I told him about how good the 3mm copper wire one core was, and how it is not used any more for electricity, so I had a hard time finding it. And he told me about another type of 3mm copper wired, used for airconditioning.
Today I bought 3 meters of capilar copper wire, 2 mm thick. I have to rethink all the skeleton again, but I think it may improve my goal. It looks strong, can bend, the only precaution is it breaks if you fold it more than 90 degrees, so I will have to plan how to do my 3D parts to let it bend just a bit. It will take less plastic I think.
So I will be thinking for a while.
I appreciate any ideas. My email is florita61@gmail.com
