I got the servos to work ok & putting them aside for now. I got my new MKS DLC32 controller board & a 3mm- 8mm drill chuck that has a 1/4" hex...
I have been playing with a Pan Tilt servo mount for the raspberry pi camera the last few days. Even if I don't make the 3D scanner, this will...
Think I will pursue morphing this rotary laser engraver into a 3D scanner. I found this project (https://en.openscan.eu/) that has most of work...
I had a dream last night where someone asked how my 3D camera project was going. When I woke up, I realized this rotary engraver could possibly...
I did some further testing swapping the 1.8-degree Nema 17 with a spare 0.9-degree Nema 17 I had. Then I swapped the DRV8825 for a A4988 driver...
I added ShieldShroud.zip to the Files tab that has the STL, STEP & a Sketchup file in it to help you get started for working to your needs. The...
I designed this a while back & thought I had posted it somewhere here, but don't see it. You could do something similar to this. [ATTACH]
I did some more testing the last couple of days. I bought a 1.25"x4' birch dowel this week & cut off a 4" and 6" piece to test with the rotary...
I have the turntable design worked out & printed. I will update assembly guide for this before uploading the parts. I used fatter standoff...
I adjusted this design some more. I added a slot to motor bearing mount & a slot on the 2040 base mount. I have found the slots make it easier...
I did some burn tests with the toothpicks yesterday, mostly with the openbuilds logo. That design doesn't seem to lend itself well to this small...
I updated the zip file of all the files & deleted the extra STL files I had uploaded since last zip since the most current ones are in the zip. I...
It was kind of interesting how that idea just popped in my head. I printed the FlushPenMotMnt_Above_V2040.stl & FlushVerticalStiffener.stl that...
I updated the build page with some more information & new photos. The 1st burn test video can be found here: [MEDIA]
It just occurred to me this evening that if you wanted to use a limit switch, you could probably wire the one limit switch for the X-axis to both...
Guess you could use a limit switch for the X-Axis, but not sure if you could just home X-axis since I don't know if there is a way to use a limit...
I added one more STL file that I find useful for limiting how far down the X-Carriage moves. It is called X-Axis_StopLimit.stl It is the yellow...
I uploaded a zip file to the files area with all the STL files, BOM & assembly drawing in STL, STEP & SKP format. Importing the STEP file into...
Think I have worked out all my current problems. I just have to the print 3 new parts. The BOM cost for mechanical part of this build comes in...
Cool. I found that I didn't need to use the top clamping screw for the pen as it was a good enough press fit. The only problem I had was making...
