Thingiverse - jonducrou's Things http://www.thingiverse.com/jonducrou Thu, 23 May 2013 01:29:55 +0100 FeedCreator 1.7.2-ppt (info@mypapit.net) en-us Copyright 2013, Thingiverse.com Camera Mount for Thing-o-Matic http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:23344
Allows a webcam (Microsoft Lifecam VX-3000 in this case) to be mounted to the X carriage for recording prints.

For example: youtu.be/KM6d3yrotqw

The camera sucks and there is a fair amount of sway as the carriage moves. I think the next attempt will be to attach to the Z carriage.

I bought some ABS online and the spool didn't fit on my existing spool holder.

The spool is about 160mm/6.5" in diameter and has no distinguishing features.

The spool holder is equally boring.

Simple skull box with 8-bit style. Clicks shut and holds quite well. Maybe too well.

My wife's birthday was coming up and I planned to give her some pieces of jewelry; which means small BORING gift wrapping.

This box, (and it's partner [http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:22431]) printed in different colours make for a much nicer wrapping and something that can be use for years to come.

A weight on the stabilizer on my super-cheap, mini-RC-helicopter flew off and disappeared.

I would seem it's a common problem and replacement parts are impossible to find.

Thing-o-matic to the rescue!

Graham escapement, used in clocks.
Part of a larger project.

I had a very old, very cheap, very busted pair of sunglasses. I wanted them to live again - so I popped out the lenses and breathed new life into them!

Makes a boring key an exciting key by adding a skull to it!

Set of planetary gears and arms to hold the planet gears in place.

Based off OpenSCAD code from thing:7390 (after cutting out significant portions of it - because the original thing is much more than a toy).

The gear ratios are very interesting, and (at least at first) non-intuitive, depending on the part that is held stationary.

With a fixed Annulus or Sun, this gives 1:6.
With a fixed Planet carrier, this gives 1:5.
