UPDATE 3-1-13: It has come to my attention that some peoples build platforms are larger than 200mmx200mm. Therefore, I have made it available to print in full/1-piece or split/2-piece.


This only fits USA style license plates.

I changed my mind on including a motorcycle plate border. I had the script written and lost it when my hard drive crashed. I'm sure you can scale down your customized plate border to fit a motorcycle.

How you can fix stuff in the future? This fix is for a Freelancer.com contest.

The idea is to design a piece for a broken arm rest.

Its a chess set for the tinkercad competition. It is inspired by, as the title suggests the wizard chess in harry potter. They may look a bit warped due to the size constraints that I realized at the last minute Hope you enjoy!

Rethinking the way we hold doors open.

The Android invasion is upon us! Protect your iPhone from the Android menace with this replacement panel for the back of your iPhone 4. It lists paradoxes guaranteed to overload any robot's silicon brain long enough for you to escape.

This one is Snakey the Crazy Eyed Snake. It can be used to store small objects or even pens and pencils.

The detail is not very high since my Zbrush skills are still getting improved and besides that I wasn't sure what kind of detail can be printed in the MakerBot Thing-o-Matic in what concerns this contest.

This model contains a support, that is optional (considering if you want to use it to store stuff or not)

Any feedback is aprecciated.

Thanks in advance,
Miguel Redondo

A friendly looking Makerbot mascot entry. Designed to be both fun to assemble and printable with out any overhangs. I know some overhangs are allowed but I decided to challenge myself to zero. The wheels can stamp little "M"s in dirt, or clay or be rolled on an ink pad.

I originally wanted to make a little cat train, hopefully I'll be able to finish it in time to submit it to the contest.

I wanted my Maker the bot to have normal arms, you know, for photo shoots and the like, so instead of reinventing the wheel I created a new shoulder joint that would be compatible with tbuser's Bobblehead Bot ( thingiverse.com/thing:11190 ). I also organized this print into plates for easier printing.

This one also features the newest head designed for the contest. This one I think is a better mascot tho there is still some work to be done.

Marked WIP until someone successfully prints one.

OK, last stab. This is one solid chunk, no articulation at all.

I am afraid this may be unprintable, but I tried to support it with tubes etc.

This part was made with Tinkercad.

**** Uploaded alternate version that uses construction beams as support.

********Slight error in alternate version. Added new version of file.

Wanted to make another one. Despite the inspiration sketch, this was inspired more by old tin robots, TV and my Dad's old portable reel to reel.

This one is pretty tiny compared to the last one, but it is all in one plate... except for the pegs.

This one was made entirely in TinkerCad. I just imported it into SketchUp for another preview pic.

Designed for Vertical X-axis competition.

PCB manufacture needs to be easier for reprap; countless numbers of printed parts can be made, but I see electronics as a real bottleneck. Just like 3D printing, the more accessible it is, the better the take up. To this end, I have started designing a milling carriage for the Vertical X-axis standard.

The idea is that the normal x-carriage can be unclipped from the x-axis, leaving LM8UU bearings on the linear rods, then this one can be clipped on to mill PCBs or other small parts.

Basic reprap PCB milling page here: reprap.org/wiki/PCB_Milling
Linear mounts are 70mm apart, as per the standard reprap.org/wiki/Vertical_X_Axis_Standard.
The LM8UU Linear bearing mounts were taken from Josef Průša/Greg Frost's X-end holders, which I think have the best grip on the bearings: github.com/prusajr/PrusaMendel. I guess my idea is that it could be swapped, not that you'd be doing it every day. I have found Greg's other design thingiverse.com/thing:9871 doesn't have as strong a hold, and is more difficult to print reliably (lots of small towers).
Spindle layout is based on David Carr's Mantis 9 Low Cost Spindle v2.0 makeyourbot.org/low-cost-spindle-2-0.
The carriage will incorporate the belt doubling system from Madkite thingiverse.com/thing:8852 that Emmanuel is building into the Vertical X-axis he has designed reprap.org/wiki/X-carriage-struder and thingiverse.com/thing:10711
More details to follow on vitamins required, once I work them out!

It's not ready to be printed yet. STLs generated by the .scad file need fixing (I used Netfabb Basic edition). Spacing needs to be refined, but it's a start. There are no belt mounts at present.

I see the main problems using a reprap for milling as:
1. Using belts to drive something that should really be driven by leadscrews - Madkite's belt doubling technique I hope will improve the belt situation
2. Wobble in the drill - David Carr's spindle design should eliminate problems at the motor/spindle that others have seen using various Dremel-style drills
3. Wobble in a X-axis - hopefully the change to a vertical X-axis should mean this is much more tightly constrained
4. Wobble in the frame - The larger problem is the X-axis pushing left and right. I'm designing a simple cross-brace to triangulate this area with threaded rod. It's not ideal for 3D printing as it will interfere with the build area, but will not get in the way of milling, and will be easily removed to convert back to printing.

Any observations, comments and/or suggestions gratefully received!

I just had to enter this contest as I love making robots.

This was made entirely in TinkerCad, but imported to SketchUp to make the logo file and then take a screen shot.

This little guy loves to sit on your desk and help you make things. He's Maker the bot!

My entry for the Makerbot/GrabCAD robot mascot competition( grabcad.com/library/maker-bot ). Not just a cute robot but also a fully functional set of helping hands. Fun and functional! There are a few iterations of the head.

The hand/clips are modifications of J_Hodgie's clips ( thingiverse.com/thing:5580 ) if you couldn't tell.

EDIT: Changed the body/logo connectors based off the screw library and adjusted some tolerances on the joints. Be sure to download the V2 zips or stls.

A big thanks to lulzbot.com for donating four pololu drivers to the contest!

The contest is over!

1st Place: Contestant 8 North90ty

2nd Place: Contestant 1 Emmanuel

3rd Place: Contestant 2 RustySpoon

This is a contest, reprap.org/wiki/Vertical_X_Axis_Standard_Contest , to encourage development of projects that comply with the new RepRap Vertical X-Axis Standard. reprap.org/wiki/Vertical_X_Axis_Standard .

Prizes

1st Prize Updated: A complete set of Reprap Generation_7_Electronics, fully soldered and tested, including Pololu drivers. Four KTM-S1201 serial 7 Segment LCD displays, and 2 high power 3W blue LED's each with a 12V driver. And either a Prusa HBP board (if I can get one) or a set of strip boards suitable for a gheto HBP. Stripboard is pictured since I don't yet have the Prusa HBP and I can't promise what I don't have. :)

2nd Prize Updated: A Gen7 electronics board populated with all electronics except the Pololu drivers. Fully soldered and tested. Two KTM-S1201 serial 7 Segment LCD displays, and one high power 3W blue LED with a 12V driver. And a set of strip boards suitable for a gheto HBP.

thingiverse.com/thing:12727 (Here's my Ghetto HBP:)

3rd Prize Updated: A bare Gen7 electronics board. One KTM-S1201 serial 7 Segment LCD display, and one high power 3W blue LED with a 12V driver. And a set of strip boards suitable for a gheto HBP.

This is an attempt to standardize rod spacing on mendel style 3D printers that are adopting a vertical orientation for the X axis smooth rods. Some examples include RepRap 1x2, Mixtape Mendel, Emaker Huxley, and a rumored Prusa variant from Russia. The standard will be informal. Those wishing to design conforming bots, X carriage designs, X axis assemblies, etc. can use this as a starting point. Hopefully many of the designs will inter-operate, allowing easier cross pollination.
