It was time to print everything and dry-fit the parts. Some mistakes were made, bed adhesion was an issue: some parts didn't stick enough to the bed, others were so stuck I slipped and stabbed my hand with the spatula...
A side node to myself to remember how to print parts compatible with Fischertechnik components. Profile for the shallow flat groove: Printing with r=2.0 and w=3.0 results in a too tight fit. r=2.2 and w=3.1 works, but feels a little bit loose. Use r=2.1...
With over 20 3D printed parts, this was a long process. The printer used is an Anycubic Kossel Delta. 0.15 mm layer height. Just regular PLA+. Different infill and parameter configurations for different pieces.Overall printing time was about a week....

Alex (of VendaKit Fame) has Kindly volunteered to honcho 3d printing.As part of the server room/ finishing room switch main power has been run so we can make the switch.For now it will be sharing space with fabric.Note: this is for functioning machines,...
Ok, so the title is a little misleading. I have just designed the case with a bit of help from the community and its is being printed by another lovely person from the community.Model rendered, you can see the cutout for the solar panel and LEDsHere...
I finally got around to making the 3D printed enclosure. If I may say so myself, it looks quite slick. I was going for a minimalist look with the thinnest bezels possible. It is completely designed using freecad and the files are available on github....
Since I removed the cassette deck, I am printing a panel with spots for buttons to control the audio player on the PI -https://www.tinkercad.com/things/1lPa7Ep9a5o-radio-side-panel?The holes were a little too big and the tray wasn't deep enough on the...
Today, I have a quick How To video on making 3D printing filament rivets. It's super quick and easy. I use these all the time for attaching hinged parts of prints, including my scissor mechanism poking device.
Been a while since an update, so I apologize! Starting to CAD up the body, and printing prototypes with PETG.Final construction will be sealed, sanded, painted, and looking pretty.Keys will be metal the holes are just for M3 fasteners.
