MakerBot Mixtape
Description
The MakerBot Mixtape Kit gives you the power to create the ultimate gift. We ship you the electronics, you print the STLs on this page in any of our terrific filament colors and snap the whole thing together!
This project is designed to work with the MakerBot Mixtape Kit, available on our store.

Update--cranking up the heat of the HBP to 110 did the trick. Worked perfectly!
(I did get the body to print flawlessly twice, and then, a week later, nope!) Any suggestions?
Is anyone else having trouble getting the body to print in full without detaching from the build platform? I get 50-75% done using my Thing-o-Matic (with HBP) and the print head essentially dislodges it by knocking it a bit each time, until the raft comes off the platform. :-[
I would love to see some schematics for the mp3 player circuit. I'm sure the guys on here would have wifi and assorts designed into it within days xD
This one of the coolest, most creative, and thoughtful kits so far. Thanks Makerbot design guys.
"Makerbot" and the tape spools should have a dualstrusion option to emblacken them. Or I suppose you *could* paint them by hand. (How quaint!) :)

Love this project. Printed perfectly in PLA. No warping on front and back panels an they snapped right into place.
