Hello All, I am sharing early images of one of my current projects that is actually meant to be released as a kit. This...
Body slice part 3 and 4 are off the printers. The top door pieces are still printing , but they will finish later tonight.also on the agenda is to print a filament splicing jig, I lost two large prints due to running out of filament at the last 5mm of the model. It is highly needed so I can use nearly all of the filament on rolls instead of swapping to a large roll for every big print.
The 4 slices of the top deck lid are finishedI did not have time to start another print before I left for work today. In hindsight that is probably good because I want to move the printers to a very large closet and put a space heater in there so I will not need a cardboard box over each printer.
The halo ring leds came in, the plan is the put the main led in a circuit to dim off and back on to simulate eyes blinking and the blue ring will just stay on. I can tell joe I will need to reduce the voltage because they are so bright!This robot is primarily intended for use outdoors so that really is not a problem.
Here are the lighting options I ordered from Amazon. I am leaning towards blue or blue/white mix for the front and rear. I would like to have the option for red or amber to blink when a tool is in operation and for safety lighting as well. So I grabbed a roll of each color.
I’m working on some alternative options for WiFi antennas. The covers look ridiculous once they are enlarged enough to fit the 5dbi antennas. So I am looking at a smaller and slimmer approach and did a basic mod of the current setup and removed the bunny ears. What do you guys think?Yeah I like the antennas, it makes the robot look more bug like!
I had a couple big prints fail on robo3d r1 plus and clog after many hours, I believe I found the culprit. The thermister lead was broken off. I ordered a replacement part and it arrived last night ( thanks amazon). I believe I will replace the heater core , extruder and such as well to be proactive. The whole extruder assembly with all the sensors , heater, wire and nozzle was 30 dollars shipped. I suppose I will get that in this evening to get back printing.I installed the new extruder but it is not jiving with the controller and still gives a low temp error. I don’t have enough time to mess with it as I am down to two classes and till the end of the month to finish them. Phew! I did get 4 Ender 3 printers and bought 4 400mm x 400mm ext kits from enderextender.com to do larger prints. I. Sold most my BB8 robots to pay for them. And I found some of the BB8s do not have their antennas. So I am using the good antennas, making a two piece silicon mold and casting new ones for the buyers. I have never tried casting parts this thin, so it is new to me, but I will walk through what I have done so far.
