Building an 8ft Orbital Camera Rig for $50
I wanted to create better timelapses for my videos but Orbital Camera Rigs are retailing for $1500-$2500, way out of my budget. So in this video I Design, Code and 3D Print an Orbital Camera Rig that is completely App Controlled using an ESP32, LM2596 Buck Converter and A4988 Driver.
*You can download all the STL files here:* lucasbuildsstuff.com/products/orbital-camera-rig-stl-file
*You can download the code here:* github.com/LucasBuildsStuff/orbital-camera-rig/
_The A4988 may be too noisy for non timelapse applications, I would recommend trying the TMC2208._

3D Printed Modular Soldering Fume Extractor
Переглядів 3,1 тис.10 місяців тому
I designed and 3d printed a soldering fume extractor attachment for the modular magnetic exhaust system to vent the toxic soldering fumes. I designed the attachment with future expandability in mind and to be able to be easily adapted to other tasks. In this video I am using an Ender 3 with an Ender Extender 400XL Kit.

In this video I design and 3D print Headlights for my 2017 Chevrolet Silverado! This is my story of how I did it in 17 days. In a nutshell, I went out and bought a CR Lizard 3D Scanner, scanned the headlights of my truck, designed a concept to fit within the bounds, printed it and used addressable RGBW LEDs to bring it all together! *To see more project information and files:* lucasbuildsstuff....

3 Doors, No Hinges, Massive 3D Printer Enclosure
Переглядів 9 тис.Рік тому
My previous enclosure wouldn't fit through my office room doors so I designed some new ones that could easily be disassembled and reassembled! The new design also addresses some of the short comings of the old enclosure: Poor visibility, poor lighting, bulky, and it was hard to work on the printer. This design can be scaled to fit any size printer, even an Ender Extender 400xl! In this video I ...

    The magnets such a crisp feel and sound. Love it. I think the computer fans would have been enough. The inline fans are great but more useful in a grow tent for hydroponics. I would probably do the computer fan setup and throw a small fan on the bottom of the printer to move air around in the printer while the exhaust fans run on a timer.

  • @pecosR0B

    My biggest question is how did you find straight 2x8s because all the long 2x4s at my local big box stores are all warped. Thought about doing this with a 3/4" plywood frame then laminate them together to make the frame out of 1.5" plywood. Think that would be strong enough?

    • @LucasBuildsStuff
      @LucasBuildsStuff Місяць тому

      I played with the curve in the wood. The long 2x8s on the sides are placed like a smile, while the ones on the front/back are placed like rainbows. The 2x4s on the roof are all placed like rainbows. The reason the 2x8s on the sides are different is because the main support is in the middle. I'm not a carpenter though, so I did what seemed to make the most sense, I'm not sure about plywood 🤔

    Awsome design! This video was really helpful in gaining some foundational level understanding on enclosures and filtration and is helping me out coming up with my own ideas. i was a little confused on why your original system didn't work when you were talking about the CFM. Why was did the 3rd fan slow down your system? Wouldn't the individual fans still take out 46 CFM regardless? Wouldn't the 3rd fan increase the CFM more? I am not too sure how this works so I would like to get some clarification.

    • @LucasBuildsStuff
      @LucasBuildsStuff 3 місяці тому

      Thanks for watching! When combining 2 pipes into 1 pipe, the total CFM of the 1 equals the total CFM of the 2. In the video the Y-pipe had equal diameter inputs and outputs, which means in order to increase the CFM of the output the speed of the air moving needs to double. Having a 3rd identical fan choked the speed and therefore reduced the CFM
