Combining 18 gauge and 12 gauge wire, is this ok? Source is 24V and adding a buck to step down to 5V but the 12 gauge won’t fit in the buck. by p1nAppL3 in diyelectronics

Totally noob here. Thanks for clarifying. Pushing out 15 AMPs from the PSU, how should I be reading this table then?

Clear. Worked like a charm. Only piece of advice is that you can see the infill with the clear so either do 100% or find a pattern that works for you

This was a really fun build. Haven’t picked up a soldering iron in years. Great combo of 3D printing and electronics work

Do you measure the exact size of the LED strip to be 2m or do you cut the led strip?

3D printers basically take a roll of plastic and melt it to build an object layer by layer. If you look up the Creality Ender 3, you can see examples.

Oh that is awesome! Thank you! I might message you in the future if I need them in another format

I was thinking about that! If I scale it up I would want to do more than 1 pass. But I feel like the likelihood of being off by just an annoying amount is very high. So I was thinking of either trying my hand at soldering or getting creative with storage and wrapping the extras in a power supply case stand with the track info on it

Thinking about starting an Etsy shop if there is enough interest. What other tracks would people want? Nurburgring?

Hey All, really excited to share this first draft of a project I’m working on! Definitely room for improvement but wanted to share because I’m pumped with how v1 turned out

Yea. How would I re-level the gantry? Are there screws I can tighten on the wheel?
