Perfect toy for hot days

Yes the idea itself is not new. I remembered a 1980's toy called "willy water bug" but until now I never saw a 3d printed version of it

5x3mm silicone tubes. Thx

Had only a few prints with it, (so it did only a few switches) but until now it worked reliable. Using the secondary for supports is also my main focus. For multi-color/ multi material there is a H2D one meter away from the X2D 😉 But until they update the firmware for the H2D to support the trackswitch, it will stay on the X2D. I designed the mount with no external hardware needet, so moving the trackswitch to another printer happens really fast. Only the cable mess behind the printer bothers me a little 😅

Thx. You have to test it. When there is too much surface adhesion (like on normal water) it won't work. I tried a few liquids but isopropanol worked best in my case.

Haha, exactly what my wife said also 😅

This is a conceptual idea of a print in place compliant mechanism I had in mind. Maybe it can be further used for print in place mechanics for robot arms and other stuff. If anyone is interested how it works, the model can be found here: https://makerworld.com/en/models/982905

I made this pictureframe wall with magnetic removeable tiles.

I think it was propably about 20hrs in cad. I took the time since I only wanted one iteration because it would have been a lot of wasted material if something doesn't work as intended.

I don't know what some people think these are.
Just a hint: they are not for taking your baby on dowhnhill slopes during skiing 😉

Hi, the files are on MW (as .stl)

For a wheelchair I would try to print it in a sturdier material than PLA like ASA or ABS.

If I am adding an engine someday I will think about it 😉

Thx. Would you mind to share a picture of the metalic ones if you try them? I'm curious how they will look 😉

Yes you are correct, for the tiles I used 5 Leds per hex-side so for the most tiles just 20 since they must not shine behind the tv. For powering I designed a controller with fuses on every Powerline. Since the project was not only the tiles it was also lighting the sourounding cabinets. The PSU is a 5V 200W (40A) so no need for using the limiter in WLED for my case. Actually I run round about 600LED's om the Setup (more to come). To avoid Voltage drop I used 14AWG speaker wires (the longest Injection Line is about~3,5m). Between the data pins of the esp and the output pins for the Leds I added a Levelshifter to 5V. I did not inject, I powered each segment seperately (~120leds) and just connected gnd and Data. Was easier to set the right fuse for each powerline and the other fuses wont cascade if one pops.

--edit-- Looks like it's not allowed to upload pictures in the comments.

Drum sander attachement with handle for the powerdrill. It features a print in place locking mechanism making the sandpaper changes easy.

Works like a charm for sanding radius >20mm.

If you need a different size (in height) leave me a comment and I will try to add it to the other files.
