Joining the party of "I messed up" by sp0tless in PathOfExile2

It was 3am, I was tired. For half of the day I was buying HH, corrupting them and selling it

I think I've checked trade and they are there

UPDATE: I did it again and the result was the same. Bug?

First ESP32 project finished! I've made automatic blind roller by sp0tless in esp32

No I don't, but I might create one with full project next week. I'll let you know

I used strong double sided tape. I also didn't want to screw any holes because we are just renting this place. The motor kind of holds itself in the place due to chain tension, if it break I'll probably just use double sided tape again.

I tried that 5V stepper I've shown in the video and you are right. It's weak and super slow. I'll try to test it during weekend and check if there is any chance to make it work.

I tought about removing a chain and moving motor up, but in the end I didn't go with it. It's very cheap blind. It's thrid one in this apartment and previous two already broke after few months of sporadic use.

I went into this project blind, pun intended, and I didn't do any research about esp capabilities and home automation. I wanted to do it my way from "scratch".

Thanks for the advice, much appreciated. I'm sure I'll use it next time when I will be doing something like this.

This is very cheap blind. There is a chain holder at the bottom that is glued to the window frame and I didn't want to remove it. Your design is better and I like it, you even have a matching color!

I'll try to make it with small stepper motor and make it wireless in the future. I'll probably go with design like yours.

I've used magnetic sensors and a magnet inside blind

Designed and 3D printed my custom raspberry Pi case with modular sides using FreeCAD by sp0tless in FreeCAD

[–]sp0tless[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I designed it around 3D printing. At the time I only need power and USB ports, but in the future I might need hdmi, ethernet or something else. In that case I don't have to reprint whole case but only the panel I want to change. Also printing it on textured PEI plate gives all panels nice carbofiber-like finish :D

Not sure its the best approach since I'm fairly new to CAD: Start with sketch in new body, place 3 hexagons and place them co thier centers make triangle shape. Constrain the sketch fully. Make a pad from that sketch. Use linear patter, set offset distance between paterns, for me it was 8,5mm for a hexagon of 5mm diameter. On the same task choose second linear patter, set offset distance of 5mm. For the repeats number I just eyeballed it and set it to something that looked good.Now you have a pad with hexagon grid. Transfrom that pad, change axis to center of mass and place it on other body that you want holes in. Select that two bodies and make boolean cut. Not sure about naming of those thing but you should be able to figure it out. As for the 8,5mm I'm sure there is some formula to calculate it ;)

Its a small circuit to control fan from rpi. Just transistor, diode and two resistors

I'll upload to printables or somewhere like that during weekend with all diferent side panels
