It was the first time I was using a 3D printer. Bizarrely, everything went super smooth with the first test prints. However, it was time to design a film carrier, and the last time I made any technical drawing was many many years ago. Moreover, I was only taught to make a technica...
A laser level will make hanging pictures a cinch. See how a home is built by viewing these home construction pictures. Ableimages/Getty Images Here's the situation: You're standing on your couch with a hammer and nail in one hand and a level in the other. You're trying to hang a...
there's something awesome about the way in which so many different aspects of a jet engine come together to make a functioning unit, that is able to propel massive objects into the sky. I actually tried to make a jet engine out of tin cans years ago!
Equation 2 provides a simple, intuitive way to evaluate a design. As you reduce the height of the sensor enclosure, the stiffness increases and the mass decreases—therefore, the natural frequency increases. Also, as you increase the height of the enclosure, the stiffness reduces and the mass ...
If you already found 12V output – make sure that I have enough amperage capacity. For different types of lasers, you need different amperages. You may require from 2 up to 6 amps capacity. Never connect the laser if there is only 12V and 1A output o less. That will simply burn this...
Here’s how to make a Raspberry Pi print server. What You Need to Make a Raspberry Pi Print Server Raspberry Pi with Wi-Fi. A Pi Zero W is best suited for this project but any Pi with WiFi can be used. We used a spare Raspberry Pi OS on an 8GB+ micro SD card. You may ...
Many 3D printers and CNC machines have their own fixation holes, so it is impossible to make a universal fastener for all machines in advance. We have open 3D models of fasteners in * .skp format, if you decide to make your hardware, however, we recommend attaching the laser to the regu...
no matter what voltage they run at, you pretty much have to make a specific and deliberate project out of killing yourself with one. Working in a wet environment is still dangerous, but only because it makes it easier to slip and then drill, saw or sand yourself instead of the workpiece...
I used a sub-woofer I already had and bought Cyber Acoustic Speakers to mount above the pre-cut speaker holes. Keep in mind that your arcade can also double as a jukebox, so make sure you get something that sounds decent. I removed the screens from these speakers which revealed 6 empty...
Understanding the motivation behind a project can make all the difference. Here's why I took the plunge into PCB creation. From Messy Wires to Professional Boards No matter how simple a project is, if it looks like a bird's nest of wires, it's hard to convince others (or even yourself...
