I had to try the straight slots to see what the problems were with them versus the curved slots. During the design, one problem that is quite...
Someone on the V1engineering forum mentioned using springs and then that made me think about using rubber bands. They are a perfect simple...
Those are pretty cool. I am going to give this turntable idea a rest for now as I have some other things to work on.
A motorized aperture like this might also be a good possibility. I saw this before, but discounted it because the apertures come out a ways at...
That being the case, a 28BYJ-48 or use the pancake motor for that & a larger motor at the base. The motor would be easier to move in steps rather...
My current thought is there should be a way to use a servo to automatically center these objects, then the servo could hold them in place. Anyone...
I found a couple of problems with this new version. 1st off, I have no room to tighten the bracket for the top turntable to the motor. After...
This came out reasonably well for a first try. The bearing print had a layer shift, so I made a simple plate that just slides against plastic...
This is what I came up with for first attempt. It has a 3d printed bearing with a wheel bearing & washer at the bottom. The plastic bearing...
Thanks, I downloaded just before uploading that message, modified the fusion 360 file & now just starting the print. I will probably have to...
This looks like the best choice self centering clamp I have found to make work with the turntable. I cam easily make it go from 1.5" to 5"...
Thank you JustinTime for the simple method of using screw hole for the plate. That worked really well as you can see in this video of engraving a...
Thanks. That would certainly make the pie plate easier to attach. I will have to try that. It would also cut out the plastic mount on the...
One of my biggest problems with using this laser outside for me is blocking the light in direction where people might see it. In the vertical...
While playing with the long vertical axis between rain showers yesterday the difference in stability between 600mm & 1000mm 2020 is noticeable on...
I updated the Minimal_Rotary_Turntable_For_LaserEngraving.zip in the files area to include an Assembly guide for the turntable & 4 - M3x2mm...
I only had to loosen 3 Tee nut screws to take the 2020 cantilever off & it comes off as a whole assembly which I thought was pretty cool. Could...
Sometimes I release them, sometimes I don't. If you have the paid version of fusion 360, they made it a lot easier to convert .stl files to their...
I uploaded the turntable design to Minimal Rotary Turntable for Laser Engraving by GeoDave & also added it to the files tab here. Included in the...
Here is the first burn test using the turntable. [MEDIA]
