We drew an entirely new model in Inventor. It's all very approximate, and the proportions of the robot are scaled to make it buildable.

The Ultimaker works pretty well. I'm still getting it dialed in. There is a problem with leaking plastic dripping on the product, which has caused print shifting problems. (The extruder barrel to nozzle seal is critical and it's not documented in the build wiki. )
