The cheapest way, by far, to find a decent enclosure was to buy an old ATX power supply and gut it. A bit of drilling, snipping and filing later and everything fits. The complete transmitter installed in an old ATX power supply case.
don't feed or order them at night. So the boards for the shield came in today and I placed all the parts facing towards the arduino board instead and missed connecting almost everything with vcc. It's all connected with each other, but not with vcc :D...
Lately I finished the work on the power cables, connected everything and temporarely secured everything with scotch tape.The circuitry is still pretty easy done because all black wires go to the ground pin on the pi's gpio and the red ones to one of...
I tried to work out how to fit all the components inside the blue box, but decided that it was just too crowded. Instead, I am going to mount everything on a 24" x 12" wood backboard. Also will make two aluminum panels, one...
I had several challenges now. One of which is that the wires from the Lulzbot Taz 5 box were too short to wire to the new SKR board. Another is that the RAMBo board used a different connector than the SKR. Lastly is that I didn't want to re-pin...
The code is coming along nicely! Everything but the Ping sensor stuff is basically done! It should be complete by beginning of next week! Talk about cutting it close! The box should also be done by early next week. Then...
I built up the first board and did some tests. All seems to be as planned. I now need to drill out the holes in the project box and enclose everything. I have the LED Track cut and drilled, ready to install. The LED strips have been cut and joined (they...
Sorry for the sound, it is very bad.In this update I show a wooden box I made for libresmartphone. I will reduce the size in future versions, but for now I want to have more space abailable so everything I want can be inside it easily.
Steel box section has arrived, so I've been spending time cutting it to length and drilling holes. I've decided to have one length down the middle to stop the deck from bending. Either side are brackets to hold the axle. Next step is to drill and countersink...

After many resherses we decided that WallY was going to be more of a BoxY than a Wall something (even if we kept the name). We created a design in 3D of the shape and size of the box. This allowed us to see where everything could fit and work. But we...
We have been doing some rough models to see how everything would fit together and see if the ALTOIDS box had enough room to house the tube well while minding the general look.
We received most of the elements we needed for our project and now had to put everything together. First of all Pierre took care of the soldering part. Emily did a first prototype of the box using cardboard. We measured with all the different objects...
Did the final debugging of the control box. Electrically everything was pretty good. The only issue I saw was that when I set a 50% dutycycle it was around 7% off and this offset was across the range. So I fixed that and software and it all works now....
It turns out the GPS receiver ist not working all the time. Somehow i only get 1-2 location-readings per 20 minutes. I don't know why. Now i put everything in a box and test it outside the helmet. Maybe a 5v step-up is noisy and only a proper...
