Beauturner's thing only provides a DWG file (which includes the rest of the ToM wood pieces as well).  For cutting my panels, I needed an SVG description and I figured that other folks might as well.  Thus, what is offered here is merely the result of converting beauturner's work from DWG to SVG by way of DXF.  And then removing all the ToM pieces leaving only one of the panels beauturner designed.

Didn't work out perfectly. I thought that the friction between the wall and the acrylic would be enough to keep it straight, but it isn't. If you put only one bottle into one side it will tilt (but not far enough to drop the bottle).

            <title>Bot Window for Cold Environment Printing</title>
            <link>http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:15375</link>
            <description><![CDATA[<div style="margin: 5px;"><a href="http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:15375"><img src="http://thingiverse-production.s3.amazonaws.com/renders/3f/b2/b2/b0/6d/IMG_1092_preview_large.jpg" alt="" class="render" style="width: 240px; height: 180px" /></a><br/></div><div>Build platforms are sensitive to changes in temperature and can affect your prints. After testing a few iterations here is a design that is ready to share; I call it the Bot Window.  I know what your thinking, what a creative and catchy name. :) Ok, truth be told its a simple but effective design that consists of acrylic panels to cover three sides of the bot (left, right and rear (and gets bolted on using left over MBI parts). <br />
<br />
This summer the space I was in had a non-controllable AC where temps were around 55F, yes you read that right, (95F outside at the time). After blocking off air vents to decrease windflow in the room and covering three sizes of the MB (left, rear and right) with cardboard the temps went up to the 65F range. Using a make-shift hood on top (think barn roof) this got me to the 69F+ range and more importantly back to good prints without lifting of edges from rapid cooling.<br />
<br />
With drafts from outside and windows in the new space the window panels have taken the chill off the platform (reduced draft) and keeping me in the mid 80's consistently. This design is based off of the MBI TOM MP887 Rev-I design file and will rest on top of the cover plates of the rods running from front to back. <br />
<br />
If you have access to a laser cutter or know someone that has one, this will be quick work. <br />
<br />
Panels were cut courtesy of my friend Angus Hines (http://www.angushines.com), thanks Angus!

The maximum bend width is about 14".  3D CAD files included from Solidworks 2010, not that there's much to them!

<br />
Large letter slot that is now 250mm x 25mm<br />
<br />
and the Letter slot which is now 165mm x 5mm<br />
<br />
It also now includes Packet pricing for UK first class packets from 1kg upwards.. Packets above 1kg can only be 1st class<br />
<br />
Prices seem to have gone up by 10%-12%<br />
The larger the item or its weight<br />
The price increase seems to be more like 10% than 12%<br />
<br />
NOTE! When using this if you have to put ANY pressure on the letter or package to get it through it is a FAIL!!.<br />
<br />
If you item falls straight through the intended slot it is OK.<br />
<br />
You can not cheat on this!! "ANY" pressure required to get it through it will cost more to post as the item being posted moves up from a letter to a large letter or from a Large Letter to a Packet,<br />

These are great if you want to run your Arduino project without being tethered to a wall or a PC and are great for Arduino classes, as you don't have to have a PC or wall wart for each participant.<br />
<br />
The smaller version has space for a 400 point breadboard and your choice of either a 9-volt or AA/AAA battery pack.  The larger version with space for a 830 point with both a 9-volt and AA/AAA battery pack (great for applications where you want to run servos or other devices off a separate power supply from you Arduino).

<br />
Recently, Angus Hines (http://angushines.com) downloaded it and used it to lasercut a bunch of ~3" tiles in fluorescent acrylic (which are shown in the attached images), and it occurred to me it was probably time to share these files on Thingiverse. <br />
<br />
<STRONG>Update 2011-12-15:</STRONG> Angus just sent me these photos of some lizards printed on  FDM/FFF equipment, and I've uploaded them, as well as the .STL and .CDR files he sent along with.   Thanks, Angus!

            <title>Flat TARDIS Pattern (Xmas Tree Ornament) for a laser cutter</title>
            <link>http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:14520</link>
            <description><![CDATA[<div style="margin: 5px;"><a href="http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:14520"><img src="http://thingiverse-production.s3.amazonaws.com/renders/89/69/2f/36/56/wooden_TARDIS_preview_large.jpg" alt="" class="render" style="width: 240px; height: 180px" /></a><br/></div><div>Since I wasn't fast enough to order the official, hand blown glass, TARDIS Xmas Tree ornament from the BBC America shop, I decided to head down to my local hackerspace and make one or two on the laser cutter.<br />
<br />
This started off as the "TARDIS Coloring" image by "Violet Succubus" on DeviantArt (http://fav.me/d310mxy).  It was the cleanest, nicest, B&W line drawing of the TARDIS from head-on I could find.<br />
<br />
There was much fiddling, adding to, filtering and re-drawing by myself and two guys (both named "Matt") at my hackerspace, but many of those lines are still hers and for them I thank her.  I don't think it would have come out as nice as it did without such a solid place to start from.<br />
<br />
PS - Yes, I know.  The windows are wrong.  I'll get to it, but until then I'm calling this version done.  :D

            <title>3D Printable Replacement Parts for Plastruder MK5/MK6 Support</title>
            <link>http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:14320</link>
            <description><![CDATA[<div style="margin: 5px;"><a href="http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:14320"><img src="http://thingiverse-production.s3.amazonaws.com/renders/d6/ff/56/ce/c0/replacement_rainbow_bridge_V1.1_A_preview_large.jpg" alt="" class="render" style="width: 240px; height: 180px" /></a><br/></div><div>Most of my acrylic parts have been slightly cracked but stable for a long time. However since I got an MK6 Stepper and have begun ratcheting up the speeds these cracks seem to have grown... One acrylic extruder plate broke the other day (thankfully the MK6 upgrade kit came with a spare). So here are some quickly generated drop-in replacement printable .STL part files for the "Rainbow bridge" that supports the MK5/6 extruder. A more printer compatible support design could be made but the convenience of drop in replacement parts should not be over looked!<br />
<br />
Oh, note that the largest part comes in 2 halves that lock together like jigsaw pieces. I would recommend gluing or acetoning these together.<br />
<br />
Also, the narrow slots beneath the nut holes are for M3 washers as otherwise I feel the nut will get pulled into the plastic if you over tighten it.<br />
<br />
To completely replace your Rainbow bridge you will need:<br />
2x replacement_rainbow_bridge_V1.1_A.stl<br />
2x replacement_rainbow_bridge_V1.1_B.stl<br />
2x replacement_rainbow_bridge_V1.1_cross_brace.stl<br />
1x replacement_rainbow_bridge_V1.1_left_foot<br />
1x replacement_rainbow_bridge_V1.1_right_foot<br />
1x replacement_rainbow_bridge_V1.1_top

<br />
- Increased the lateral separation of 234 mm to 250 mm.<br />
<br />
- It has moved 10 mm heated platform down.<br />
<br />
- The resulting print volume depends on the platform and the extruder that we place but you can easily get a size bigger than 190 x 190 x 100 mm.<br />
<br />
MORE ROBUST:<br />
<br />
- The thickness of the acrylic has risen to 6 mm.<br />
<br />
- The introduction of a crosspiece to give more rigidity.<br />
<br />
- In the attachment points of the rods can be placed brimmed washers (DIN9021).<br />
<br />
DESING MADE CONSIDERING THE WIRING:<br />
<br />
- The electronics is on the left side of the printer, it is placed horizontally to get the cable up coming from above.<br />
<br />
- Parts acrylic have holes or slots provided for wiring.<br />
<br />
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS:<br />
<br />
     Like last time, the magnificent infographics have been made with Cinema 4D + VRay by PIKELO.<br />
