Looking for a human that I can assemble and put into the position I need for my cart. Where is the best place to go to find this type of stuff?

I coudn't find a properly rigged human in onshape public... so i rigged one and gave him some eyes as well. And for convenience, there is a percentile-chart in the document.... voilà:

Hi @skyeparker1
One way to do this would be to search the public models. Go to your cad.onshape.com > public > search.
I've found it is useful to put what your searching for in quotes so it will search for the exact word.
Also, here is a copy of the Ergo-Man someone made a while back:

One option would be to export your CAD scene from Onshape (e.g. as glTF), import it in Blender, assign fitting materials (if the Onshape materials didn't survive ex- and import), import the chosen character and do posing and rendering of the entire scene in Blender.
Or the other way around, do the posing in Blender, export as e.g. glTF (to retain shaders), import in Onshape and do the rendering there.
My guess would be that rendering in Blender would give you more options (also not sure how well material transfer between Blender and Onshape via glTF works - in doubt it might be less work to reassign new materials to the CAD model in Blender than to the character in Onshape(?)).

I use the one from this document: https://cad.onshape.com/documents/23a6ab28cc9e8d326787c479/v/25b4df17ff0ba3ec25c2a374/e/19aaa185b9dd46fdc77b12cd
I don't know where it comes from originally but there were a lot of other documents in the public results that are obviously the same source model but this one had the more linked documents. I also like that it has a composite part. For my uses, I don't need the arms and legs to move so this just makes it load quicker and be more stable.
@roman_jurt190, could you add a composite part in your part studio and then version it? I could just switch to using this one for my projects then.
