This prints in place!  Do not print the pieces separately. 

This works with #Gridfinity but also works as an empty box or you can design your own insert.

All pieces snap into place with the exception of the hinge pin.  The hinge pin requires a small paper clip to be straightened and then inserted into the print.  That holds the lid to the base.  

This works with #Gridfinity but also works as an empty box or you can design your own insert.

Today we explore the use of an ESP32-CAM (ESP32 with Camera) as a directional motion sensor.  While motion sensing with an ESP32 has been available for some time, I take it to the next level using it in an animatronic Halloween project.  The project uses only an ESP32-CAM as the entire motion detector and the microcontroller driving the stepper motors.  The entire project is open source allowing you to use this in robotics or other projects where you need a cheap and easy motion sensor.  This project is limited only by the visual range where many PIR and Ultrasonic sensors have a limited range.  This works great for projects where you want to detect a cold object (not a living body) or objects far away.  The base code uses a 10 degree range for its stepper movement but you can alter the code and the way the project works to fit your specific needs.  I also cover how you can purchase an inexpensive IR Floodlight to enable the use of this at night or in low light situations.  This worked great as a Halloween animatronic project where a spooky inflatable eye follows you around the yard.

I created this $10 IP Camera which allows you to use it for Octoprint (Or just a security camera) instead of a wired USB camera.  USB has a limit of the number of web cams it can support with the bandwidth of the USB Bus.  This IP Camera does not have that limitation and works perfectly with Octoprint. 

I have a complete how-to video on how to get it running here https://youtu.be/6qiH1BRwUeA?sub_confirmation=1

It uses a $10 ESP-32 Cam development board which works wirelessly.

This bag hanger comes in various block sizes but uses the same clips.  The 3D Print uses a chamfer so even an uncalibrated printer should be successful in printing these.  Use horizontal expansion to reduce the hook size if you find its too tight to press into the block.  Most printers wont have any problem with default slicer settings. 

The bag hangers allow you to take any zipper based plastic bag and hang it up on a pegboard or hook.  Organize your workshop, garage or classroom with these bag hangers.  You can watch an entire video on how these bags can be used for anything and a single hanger can hold 4 pounds or more!

Print as-is no supports are required.  .6 nozzles print this extra fast! If you choose to have heavy weight in your bags please use a smaller .15 layer height for extra strength. PLA filament works great.  I printed these in eSun orange https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01EKEMA2M?ie=UTF8&psc=1&linkCode=sl1&tag=rwmech-20&linkId=384670947fdd94c3327e57a72583ae0b&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl

This is the LayerFused C201 printer.  This printer is open source and all the parts can be found online here.  This was put together as a video series of how to build your own 3D printer with step by step instructions.  The printer was built by my Nephew as I showed him how a 3D printer was built.  Most people should be able to follow the series and make the printer or a similar build with these videos.

These are only some of the 3D Printed parts for it. Others are here on Thingiverse and linked in the [Bill of Materials](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ZE9ie_5OYdCFkesfaq6oUkoeBMCPePK8aXwo8m5GgxU/edit?usp=sharing)

The printer can be made for around or under $200 if you source/substitute cheaper parts.

Update 10/22/19 - Added Foot Pads and offset blocks.  Updated Display case to fix bug in design. Added document to link to all the models and can be downloaded in various formats. 


LayerFused C201 3D Printer

Model originally uploaded to Thingiverse at https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3564504.

3D Printer owners know that from time to time a print goes bad and filament attaches itself to the nozzle.  I have seen many nozzles where plastic has baked on over and over again.  My nozzle stays squeaky clean thanks to a nozzle brush I created based on a nozzle brush my friend Jesse was using from the Colorado Printing Project.

The idea came about at a Maker Faire when he was talking about the nozzle brush he obtained at a MRRF.  The material in the brush he claimed was the best out there. It reminded me of the felt moving pads that often come with your rental truck.  From there I went on a hunt to find something that would make the ultimate nozzle brush.  I found that Amazon carried the moving pads but they were costly and far more than I would have needed for 1000 nozzle brushes let alone the few I was going to produce.  I settled for [these felt pads](https://amzn.to/2UCEVRu) that proved to be outstanding for this nozzle brush.  

Print this with the square hole face down.  The printer should be able to bridge the gap across the top of the hole without issue.  You need no supports.  After printing fold two of the 1" squares in half, place that in the square hole.  The other side place one square flat.  

Filament will stick to the pad.  It is easy to pick out and the pads are easy to replace.  Much better on your fingers than a wire brush.

This is a very minimalist DIY Fume Extractor.  You only need a few parts to put this together. The prints should take about 3 hours total to print everything and then you can assemble it.  The assembly video is here https://youtu.be/IyjuDWjKk_U

You need 4, 40mm or 45mm M3 Screws depending how you assemble it.

This is a 2020 Extrusion Neopixel light bar you can use with a 3D Printer.  

This light bar goes with the YouTube video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SoAcZDXzd00 where we install Neopixels into the SKR V1.4.
We first wire the Neopixels and then cover installation and configuring Marlin.  We show how Neopixel LEDs trigger and display when heating. I also go into the Marlin M150 command and how you can modify your startup or other gcode to change the Neopixels to any color.  This is a very simple project for any BigTreeTech SKR v1.4 owner.

This is an endoscope mount for the Ender 3 and similar Creality printers that have the same front fan shroud.  This mount does not interfere with the fan and allows air flow through.  It mounts to the front which is generally unused space on the Ender 3.  

This will print without supports. Just lay it on its side just like the photo.  Once you have it printed you will need 1 M3*12 screw as the stock screw you may find is a little short.  You should have this spare screw in with your ender spares. 

Simply remove the single fan screw, install this mount and attach the endoscope to the mount.  It is designed to get tighter as it goes further in so it should support multiple types of endoscopes.  They vary widely on amazon.  I have tried a few and any that have a 9mm or smaller camera should fit with this mount.  I have listed a few versions below.  If you check out the video I show you how to hook it up to OctoPrint but you can also use your phone directly or with WiFi.  

Cheap one that gets the job done (tested myself): https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07DBX527F/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&psc=1&linkCode=sl1&tag=rwmech-20&linkId=ebef2c75523966eed91c50c450015ab1&language=en_US
Version I personally use: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07DBX527F/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&psc=1&linkCode=sl1&tag=rwmech-20&linkId=ebef2c75523966eed91c50c450015ab1&language=en_US
WiFi Camera with much better quality: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07DBX527F/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&psc=1&linkCode=sl1&tag=rwmech-20&linkId=ebef2c75523966eed91c50c450015ab1&language=en_US

Again I think just about any endoscopic camera less than 9mm will work.  

The rc.local.txt file is for Octoprint installs, see the youtube video for details.

This is my clip on umbrella light.  There are 4 versions of this clamp inside.  There is a tilted and straight version both with a solid or open bottom.  They will light up your patio umbrella and look spectacular.

The "Open" version on the bottom use these special [remote controlled LED tea lights](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07MFXSGQ2/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&psc=1&linkCode=sl1&tag=rwmech-20&linkId=32807236824747434c36d4bd2523c956&language=en_US).  They simply press into the bottom but have the advantage of being remote controlled with various color options with a dedicated white LED.   

You can point these up or down the umbrella pole depending on the light you need. 

The other version has a closed bottom so you can place any sort of tealight in it.  I have used [these tea lights](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07MFXSGQ2/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&psc=1&linkCode=sl1&tag=rwmech-20&linkId=32807236824747434c36d4bd2523c956&language=en_US) successfully on many projects and they are very inexpensive. 

I printed these at 100% infill with supports.  The supports break off.  The 100% infill on the clear holders transfers the light much better.

This test ring was featured in the YouTube video on Arc Welder https://youtu.be/18uYYXecH5g

Arc Welder modifies your gcode to convert line segments to arcs that most firmware can understand.  The test ring was used in the videos and you can use it to test the results against the video.  Cura 4.6 generated gcode was compressed 95% by converting line segments into arcs with this test object.

Don't have a runout sensor? Can't install one? Then RunoutAnywhere is for you!  Simply print the case, solder a microswitch to a microcontroller and you're done.  [See the video here on how this works](https://youtu.be/dn2Pl7ypKQ4).

The RunoutAnywhere project is a Universal Wifi Filament Runout Sensor that works with OctroPrint.  When it detects filament runout it sends an API call to OctoPrint to pause your printer.  It costs about $5 to build one.

This project was designed to be very simple to build, low cost and an easy beginner project.  Once you solder the switch directly to the board you will need to configure the software with your OctoPrint URL and API Key.  After it is configured simply burn it to the board and you are ready to go.  Can easily be completed in an hour or less (once the model is printed).  

The case was designed so you can zip tie it.  The nice advantage to that is if you have multiple printers you can swap the runout sensor as needed without having one for each printer.

This is a flag clip that will keep your flag attached to the rod and keep it from moving.  My wife had lost one of the flags she had and asked if I could create something to keep it in place.  This works perfectly.  I printed these in TPU however you could easily use PLA as well.  The TPU has the added flexibility so they seemed to hold on quite well.  The rod is a 5mm rod that they attach to.  You can easily resize these large or smaller in the slicer to fit your flag rod.

Today I am introducing the filament calibration cylinder.  Calibrate your filament for more precise prints.  This calibration test will allow you test and calibrate important settings such as flow compensation, cooling, and horizontal expansion.  This test prints quickly and makes calibrating your filament and print fun.  Print the cylinder at 0% infill, 3 walls and use cooling at 100%.  Your 3D Printer will be happy you calibrated it. 

See it in action here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SJdj-EQCM7c


Filament Calibration Cylinder

This can be a very difficult torture test.  It includes a number of different test in it. **Start at 50% size**

Overhang test on the bottom. 
Span test across the back
60mm Cube size tolerance
Multiple circles tolerance
Stability printing inverted cone.

The print was designed so you can make it larger or smaller.  This example is printed at 50%.  I suggest you start out at 50% because it will print considerably faster.  If you print the full size cube you do get a much better span test on the back but its harder to print the inverted pyramid on the inside.  You can print this with zero infill and I was successful at 50% however its more difficult at 100%.  Concentric infill is very difficult at 100% size due to lack of supports in the internal cone.  Triangle infill at 1% works great and doesnt increase time significantly.  

Expect to have a failure or two.  I would love to hear about what printers this works on and what your settings were. 

To date the large version 100% I have printed in as little as 1.5 hours at .3mm with an Ender 3.

Update 7/5/19 - These work great for night lights.  I used them in the hotel when we went on summer holiday.  Tired of walking around in a dark hotel room? One in the bathroom works great for an entire trip! Just turn it on before going to bed and the kids (and youre toes) will love it!

This 3D Printed LED Cube is quick and easy to make. These are fun for all ages and can be incredibly useful for accent lighting. Originally designed as a toy the more I printed these the more fun I had. In fact I printed an entire set just for myself.  I had to buy more filament because I used everything I had making all the fun cubes.  

Bill of Materials

* Ultimate LED Cube downloaded from Thingiverse
* [Color Changing LED Tea lights](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B079MCF2L6/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&psc=1&linkCode=sl1&tag=rwmech-20&linkId=11f8a6022ecf227536b3a105aecc0cc7&language=en_US) available from Amazon (although almost any should work)
* [Solutech Clear PLA Filament](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B079MCF2L6/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&psc=1&linkCode=sl1&tag=rwmech-20&linkId=11f8a6022ecf227536b3a105aecc0cc7&language=en_US)

Once you have everything you will want to print the model using the clear PLA.  I have printed these on PETG as well however the PLA seems to work a little better. 

Cura Print Settings

* 3 perimeter walls (for added strength)
* 5% infill using Triangles (gives it the star look on top)
* .3 mm layer height (prints it very fast)
* Print without supports.

Rotate the model or ensure that the hole in the cube is facing up.

Need to transfer filament from one reel to another for a friend?  Want to split your filament onto another reel for a second printer? Then the Drill to Filament Reel Adapter is for you!  Not sold in any store this adapter fits directly on the end of your power drill (supports multiple sizes) and then inserts directly into your spool (also supporting multiple sizes).

I designed this after watching Angus' YT Video use a piece of foam in one of his recent videos.  I also wanted to share some filament with a friend and this works perfectly.  

I printed this in TPU and I suggest you do the same.  The TPU grips better than traditional PLA will.  [Here is the link to the filament I used.](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00VKSCMTS/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&psc=1&linkCode=sl1&tag=rwmech-20&linkId=03f27041255c803d1f67c4f06bcec599&language=en_US)

Since this is round if you don't have extrusion issues you can print this safely at 60-80mm/s I personally printed it at 80mm/s on my Ender 3 perfectly.
