I printed the clever design of Sulanix (thanks for this) but I found it a bit flimsy and there were at least 5 mm to win in the design to set the probe closer to the fan in X direction.

Here is an openscad fully parametric remix!

Please modify this line if you want a smaller probe:

probe_diam = 18.5;

I join in the files section my configuration.h for the skynet V2.3.2 firmware.
I found it a bit nervous in terms of acceleration an jerk...

As you may see on the second pictures, the autolevel does pretty good job ;-)

It's an understatement to say that Anet A8's acrylic frame is weak...
Here is a carbon "exoskeleton" to add an incredible stiffness to your printer and thus reduce z-wooble caused by X axis shaking the frame.

I am an adept of KISS concept (Keep It Smart and Simple), you will need only one hour of printing to finish the exoskeleton which means very very few filament.

The stiffness is brought by 2 pieces of 6mm carbon rods or carbon tubes (go and search on ebay or in your local kite shop, you'll get them for less than $10).

I join a not so good video explaining how to assemble it (sorry for the out of focus parts) https://youtu.be/Jiec6JPh0PI

I plan to make it even stiffer just by adding a jonction piece where the rod crosses the vertical plate (ther is a hole not far from there...)

I hope you like, any comment welcome ;-)

This is the project for my bench power supply (based on an AT power supply).

I provided both the .stl (as I printed for by bench) and the .scad files, so you can customize it for your own needs.

Detailed information about this project can be found on the website:
http://diyers.com.br/index.php/en/2017/07/10/bench-power-supply-part-1-cabinet/

For other projects, check http://diyers.com.br/

Obs: The file BenchModel.stl is not meant to be printed, but just to give an idea of the whole object after all part attached. However, if you have a big printer, be my guest, go on and print it.

I rarely use the multmatrix module in OpenSCAD. This thing is a try. It may be viewed as an advanced version of Characters container generator.

Enjoy & Happy printing...

Edit again: There are some things to tweak, like the size of the snap in cylinders and the position of the opening holder, so I made this thing a WIP. Expect some minor changes in the near future.

Customisable box with a cover, which snaps on quite tight. I wanted this to store some USB & phone adaptors in my car, but it may be useful for 100s of other things, so I publish this.

Edit: Made a version 1.1 - wifey had trouble opening the box, so I added an optional gap for putting a coin in. Turn it, and the box opens. I assume her finger nails are softer than mine ;-)
I also added an optional wall, so you can separate things inside. Sizes of opening helper and separating wall had to be adjusted a bit, will print the new version tonight. Removed some minor issues.

Does it annoy you that you can't type in any value you want as a customizer variable?
For instance:
1in
3cm
1 1/2in
... etc

Well, now you can!

This is my complete extruder

This is a customizable wavy vase or cup. In the Customizer, you specify polar graph formulas for the bottom and top, as well as a formula for varying the diameter, and a twist angle, as well as the wall thickness and the bottom thickness.

The design may not work if your graphs have sharp cusps.

The OpenSCAD file uses (and bundles) my tube mesh and function parser libraries.

Updates:

• July 6-8, 2017: fix bug that cut off vases with too much flare; add slow-walls option

This is a mockup of the E3D V6 hotend for OpenSCAD. It's meant to be a visual aid for anyone designing their own extruder, cooling fan ducts, or other hotend related parts within OpenSCAD.

This is part of a set of customizable Lego compatible robotics components. This post is for parametric Lego compatible TREADS.
(Necessary wheels are a separate Thingi here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2417830) (Thingy's are separate because each is its own customizer.)

Files Included:
*An openscad file for generating any length of tread with any tread pattern you want.

When customizing wheels and treads, to make a perfect fit they must have the same number of teeth. If you want to make a tank tread, use the attached excel calculator to determine the appropriate number of tread teeth. (That or trial and error!)

The wheels should be printed in a hard material like ABS. The treads must be at least semi flexible. The TPU linked below works but is a bit slick for mini-sumo and is tight for stretching. The TPE filament makes ideal high flex high stretch treads.

This is part of a set of customizable Lego compatible robotics components. This post is for various Lego compatible 9g servo mounts. This fits either the popular SG90 or the FS90R (continuous) servos.

Files Included:
6 differently oriented servo mounts.
An openscad file for customizing the gripper/flag. (The flag is intended to be an accessory for a mini-sumo robot.)
An openscad file for standard Lego bricks along with a printing calibration brick.
(The compatible wheels shown are a separate Thingy.)

I recommend printing brick parts in ABS, but the grippers in semi-flexible TPU. Printing Legos is tricky, see the print settings section for tips.
