  • 3D Print Raaco Handybox Inserts (A9-1)

  • At first, I bough extra compartment inserts. But realized shortly after getting my first 3D printer, that designing and printing my own was going to be cheaper and quicker.  The dimensions of the smallest box are specified as 39mm wide x 55mm deep...
  • 3D Printing the Mechanical Coupling

  • The plan for the mill is to temporarily convert the X and the Y axis to CNC control using 3D printed parts. Then I should be able to use the 2 axis cnc to machine the final axes conversions. I have got temporary access to a Makerbot 2X which does a great...
  • 3D printing tips

  • This log will cover 3D printing tips.  If you have suggestions from your own experience please leave them below!FED3 was designed to be printed with minimal support material, as our printers don't have supports.  You'll notice that many of...
  • The Need to Automatize 3D Printers

  • The Problem Even though 3D printing is a newly emerging technology, it has rapidly became mainstream in education, manufacturing and many other industries. 3D printers allow anyone to easily produce complex parts. However, these machines have one critical...
  • 3D printing and GrabCAD

  • I was able to 3D print the nut retainers today and they came out great, still need to order the Shapeways parts to really put the entire assembly together. I'll be kicking that order off this Friday and will have enough components to get the Z-axis together...
  • 3D printed brackets

  • I designed some supporting brackets to sandwich the LCD Module to the PCB. Standard 0.1" female header pins were used on the PCB side, with the male header pins on the LCD side. This brings the PCB separation to 11.0 mm. With 1.6 mm PCB thickness on...
  • 3D-Printed Parts

  • My first assignment was to print the 3D needed parts. I used my Prusa MK3s and Red and Black PLA.  I printed 'ALMOST' all the parts from the .stl files posted by Roger. However, I used some variations: Mirrored Parts: I printed the 4 corner...
  • 3D printing on pedal power

  • If you hang around in the 3D printing community, you have no doubt seen the question of electrical power come up, which I have always found to be kind of an odd thing to think about. We don't think about the power used by a hot glue gun or soldering...
  • New Bobble-Bot Chassis - A 3D Printing Story

  • We've spent the past month getting two new chassis built, color coordinated this time. Getting the first robot built, tested, and controllable took quite a while. The BB2 robot was designed, built, assembled, and disassembled more times than a sane...

  • Designing the Enclosure :This was the most time consuming step for me.I have spent around 4 hours to design the enclosure. I used Autodesk Fusion 360 to design it. The enclosure have two parts : Main Body and Front Cover The main body is basically designed...
  • 3d Printing, Rapid Prototyping and Farm Robotics

  • This log will be a repository and notes for 3Dprinted parts that I have designed for use in the prototyping and even early small run production for the UFARM Robotics Project.Grow Light Hanging ClipThe grow light hanging clip was necessary to provide...
  • Pollution Monitor meets 3D Printing

  • The portable environmental monitor is finalist in both categories of the Hackaday Project, Best Product and the GrandPrize but the development doesn’t stop here. We’ve managed to put together a complex piece of equipment that also has an appealing design....
