G+_Shooter_FPV (Shooter_FP Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 So she's finally done.... and as Fr. Robert Ballecer, SJ and Bryan Burnett would say, it's a bit jankey... but I'm proud of it. 3 IKEA Lack Tables and a bunch of 3D printed parts, LEDs, temp display and a fan. Later today I will get a link for all of the pictures and stuff... I just wanted to post this quick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_David Peach Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 Looks great! I'm working on a write-up for you about PWM control of the fan. I will let someone else tackle integrating the temperature sensor to control fan speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Golden Retriever Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 Congratulation That room looks like a school, are you a teacher? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Shooter_FPV (Shooter_FP Posted June 20, 2017 Author Share Posted June 20, 2017 Tod Sage Close... I'm a tech for a school department. My office/shop is in a room in our high school. Our Robotics teacher wants to steal this now, or have me build one for him... lol... it was fun to build. I'll have a link to other pictures posted later tonight.

G+_Golden Retriever Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 When I looked at the desk and I looked at the cinder block wall and the room and your stand it occurred to me that it looked an awful lot like a school, and then I thought maybe you should get the metal shop teacher to upscale one of those projector carts to a size that would fit the device. Give the portable one to the robotics teacher keep your stationery so people won't ask to borrow it. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Shooter_FPV (Shooter_FP Posted June 21, 2017 Author Share Posted June 21, 2017 Tod Sage Funny thing is... the Robotics department has 4 3D Printers, and all of them are in some state of malfunction. This one is the only one that works... lol... And it's a Monoprice Maker Select Plus, with the Micro Swiss hot-end upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Shooter_FPV (Shooter_FP Posted June 21, 2017 Author Share Posted June 21, 2017 Ok, so I did my best to write up a build log for this (I've never done a build log before...) imgur.com - VERY Simple IKEA Lack Table 3D Printer Enclosure The one thing that I didn't mention is that the one thing I deliberately did was NOT attach the acrylic sheets (2 sides and rear) to the bottom of the enclosure. The reason I did that was because I want to be able to pull up and away the enclosure in case I need to... especially if somehow the LED strips fall, or something like that. I know I could have done some things better, or different, but those things don't present themselves during the build. It works great for me the way it is, except I'll probably do the Arduino thermal controlled fan in a month or so. And I am ALWAYS open to suggestions, so if there was something I could have done different, or something for an addition to it in the future, PLEASE post up...
