3D Printed prototypes before injection molding
Log from FunKey project - All your games on your keychain !
Introduction FunKey's design has been completely rethought. It is now sturdier, slimmer, with an active hinge that puts no stress on the cables and most importantly thought for production. We have designed every component while thinking about the injection...

3D printing for a hospital (and also for the home)!
Log from 3D Printed Repairs
I am a medical technician (I repair electronics, that repair humans), and in this field, not many plastic objects can be printed (everything needs to be auto-claved). But once in a while the carpenters, electricians or someone else comes to me and...

3D Printed Frame DIY Drone build
Log from Makespace and Open Source Creativity
During the first week of March 2020, a few of us from Makespace and Open Source Creativity, decided to build a new DIY Quadcopter based on a 3D printed frame DIY Drone design (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2453393/files). After approximately...

New 3D-models
Log from FATCAT: Altoids Tin Mod Tracker
As I discussed in the previous log I've decided to modify the build to fit the speaker below the PCB, instead of gluing it to the lid of the Altoids tin. The first thing to do was to determine how much vertical clearance inside the tin I had...

Materials for big 3D prints
Log from RigTig's Big 3D Printer
When I started this project long ago, I naively thought that I'd just collect together the many extruders I'd seen, including plastic filament, clay, concrete, and chocolate. Well, what works for 100mm to 200mm cubes (or thereabouts) is not always appropriate...

OS 3D Printed Tabletop Reading Lamp
Log from 3D Printed Opensource Lamps
December 29, 2021 | Applied Technology Lab We finally finished the first prototype of a tabletop reading lamp.It's similar to old-school banker lamps or library lamps but very simplified and in the process of being optimized for 3D printing. I say optimized...

Introduction: 3D Printed Electrical Components
Log from Opensource 3D Printed Electronic Components
March 1, 2016 | ProgressTH 3D printers sit there, with a spool of filament, just waiting for you to come up with an idea or a need to fulfill with a printed component. With a few other common supplies usually on hand either in a public or private makerspace,...

Coanda-effect cooling system for 3D printing
Log from Open Robotics Eurobot
We needed a functional 3D printer to produce our actuators and other mechanical pieces. The meccano prototypes were not very precise and seemed very "amateur".We had a 3D printer that lacked a cooling fan for the extruder output. With no fan, the printing...

Aussie Sawppy - Coupla 3D printing tips
Log from Aussie Sawppy
Sharing to perhaps save someone else some frustration...Firstly, our Cocoon Create Touch (Wanhao Duplicator i3 Plus) has manual bed levelling, which is fine. A minor hassle, but no big deal.We've found that using the preheating function on the machine...

3D Printed parts and basic wiring
Log from A guide to custom Joysticks
After almost 40 hours of printing on the sidewinder. The basic body of the V3 Joystick is now ready.For sure it is not perfect but for my first self constructed and printed assembly - I am pretty happy with it :)The center part is holding the breakout/processing...

Talking with the 3D printer
Log from ESP Swiss Knife
This is the last improvement to the device : showing the state of my 3D printer.I already connected a Raspberry Pi, a TFT and a relay to the printer, installed Octoprint and writed a custom pygame interface (I love pygame + RPi). It allows me to control...

3D Printed 9g Servo Electric Screwdriver
Log from 3D Printed Opensource Tools
November 29, 2018 | ProgressTH Here is our first entry to our 3D printed opensource tool project — a 3D printed, 5v powered, 9g servo driven, thumb joystick actuated, Arduino Nano controlled electric screwdriver. All the files are available...

Pannels 3d Prints to test for fit
Log from HBKD-81
Looks like the 3d Test panels fit: So after waiting about 2 weeks to get the panels, they came and we have basically a working case! I won't bore you with the back panel hack job I did getting the switch and the video port mounted, it's basically...

3D Printed Case
Log from Reagent Tracker
Design Considerations: The starting point of this project was the case, I wanted something that a bottle of FormLabs resin could sit on (about 100mm diameter), or be dropped into when not in use to act as both storage and measurement system. It had...

Log #9: Redesign using laser cut ply to reduce 3D printing
Log from The Digi-Gurdy and Digi[Nerdy]Gurdy
October 2019: REDESIGN IS COMPLETE using laser cut ply for the front and rear panels to reduce the amount of 3D printing required somewhat, to reduce overall build time and also to reduce the time spent filing and fettling the keys, keyslots and so on...
