Installing the new 16mp Arducam onto my Prusa MK3S+ to monitor prints and run timelapses. 

This is the specific camera:
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/arducam/high-resolution-autofocus-camera-module-for-raspberry-pi

I found this model which I really liked to mount it to my printer: https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/3407-articulating-raspberry-pi-camera-mount-for-prusa-m

The issue I ran into was that the faceplate was to small for the box around the lens and I did not like the bigger opening so I designed my own faceplate. It is close to a 1:1 with the original I just moved the opening and made it slightly larger. 

No supports needed and a pretty simple print.

I made these models for my video on using "mouse ears" or "lily pads" as some call them. They are used instead of brims and can be placed anywhere to provide additional adhesion for your model. 

I typically use Prusa Slicer which has basic shapes built in but other slicers may not so I created a few that can be downloaded and used in any slicer for this functionality. 

Download model, scale the z height of the model to be the height of your first layer and place toward the edge of your model. It will help with gripping onto the bed and they can be torn off and cleaned up afterwards by hand or with a debarring tool.

I have been doing a bit more 3d modeling and wanted to design my own case for the Raspberry Pi 2 Zero. I will be using a few of these with Octopi. 

The Pi will snap in place on the standoffs and the lid will also snap in place so you do not need any hardware. 

Optionally, there are holes in the bottom for 2 M3 screws if you want to mount this to any 3d printer that has aluminum extrusions. 

UPDATE: I have now added a new version with the two holes length wise instead of with wise. This will allow you to mount to something like a Prusa Mini 3030 or even a 2020 frame. 

Also, with certain printers the standoffs for the Pi are not large enough for a tight fit. If that is the case for you, scale to 101% and reprint. (That is what I had to do on Prusa Mini)

I designed this to allow you to adapt the stock fan housing for the Neptune 2 to the mutant. Simply print this out, install 2 of these brass heat inserts (AFF) https://amzn.to/3E5jhaL and bolt to the Mobile Plate. 

When I installed the Mutant the X-Carriage was not able to reach the endstop so I designed a new endstop carriage/mount here: https://thangs.com/Modbot/CE3_Neptune-2-Mutant-Endtop-Housingstl-31694

With the Universal Mutant Plate, I had issues with the X-Carriage trying to home. I took apart the stock endstop housing and modeled it in Fusion 360 so that I could move the endstop a bit further out. It has no issues reaching the endstop when homing now. No additional hardware is needed to install this. It is designed for the plastic screws that are included already on the endstop from factory. 

I also designed an adapter that will let you use the stock fan housing for the hotend. Here is a link to that: https://thangs.com/Modbot/Wham-Bam-Mutant-Neptune-2-Fan-Shroud-Adapterstl-31695

I wanted to set up air assist on my K40 laser but after doing a but of research decided not to go with the nozzle type assist. Instead I hooked a pump up to some tubing and then connected it to a brake line. This was really simple to do and ensures that the air is hitting directly on the laser point. 

This simple 3d model sits in place around the K40 laser head. It should be a snug fit but I did add a screw hole for an M3 screw in case you want to tighten it to the laser head. The brake line slots into the hole and I did use a bit of super glue to secure it in place. 

Here is the exact parts I used for this:

I modeled the sunshot handcannon from destiny 2 as a fun project and am very happy with the end result. It is by no means an exact replica but you can slice and print it for cosplaying. I also went ahead and included the 3d modeling file for anyone that might want to take the project further! Please post if you print I would love to see this model come alive!

This is the second version of my Emu Pi Mini Arcade that improves upon the first design. This Arcade requires less printing than v1, has a better back door design, adjustable feet, external USB port, and arched arcade button to give more clearance between the joystick and screen. 

For the print settings you will need supports mostly just for the parts that connect the shell pieces together since they print in the air. Infill 100 percent I do think you could get away with less than that but I did it to be certain. Printed in PLA with a .2 layer height. This will print on a standard 200x200x200 printer I made sure to model it that way so that many people could use and print it.

Parts used for the build:
Raspberry Pi 3:
http://amzn.to/2DIXkTc
7" LCD Screen:
https://goo.gl/75PsiF
Arcade button and joystick kit:
https://goo.gl/1YAxg8

Double sided adhesive (for speaker mounting & lcd screen):
http://amzn.to/2F7EW3F
Velcrow:(used to mount pi board in case I wanted to remove it)
http://amzn.to/2DFBqQL
You will also need some m3 screws I suggest x 12 and x 20 along with an even longer set of 4 for securing the button and joystick face to the bottom
1 ft USB extension cable:
https://amzn.to/2LXEOqS

Assembly should be pretty explanatory just secure the parts to each other using the m3 screws I did not need any nuts other than on the hinges the plastic was extremely solid and connected to each other without the need. If the m3 screws wont grip into the holes use a screwdriver to twist back and forth with some pressure on the holes which will allow the screws to grip. You will also need a set of m4 screws to connect the arcade joystick and button top to the bottom. 

As far as setting up retropie just refer to:

I purchased an exhaust fan for my K40 laser to vent fumes out of my shop. I needed a way to mount it on the back of the machine since the mounting points on it were to large and would block the door for accessing the laser tube. I created a simple adapter than I drilled into the back of the machine and bolted to my Exhaust fan. 

This is the exhaust fan I used and designed this mount for:
https://amzn.to/34IyxZS

Its fits perfectly and will allow you to have full access to the Tube if you need to replace it or adjust the mirrors. 

Printed in PETG

No Supports 30% infill and 3 shells.

This is a project I started on a few weeks ago and I am very happy with the results. I decided to share it with the community for those that would like to make there own version.

For the print settings you will need supports mostly just for the parts that connect the shell pieces together since they print in the air. As far as infill I had tried with 20 percent but it was to thin so the final version was printed with 100 percent I do think you could get away with less than that but I did it to be certain. This will print on a standard 200x200x200 printer I made sure to model it that way so that many people could use and print it.

I looked at existing Cr-10 options since they have identical frames but did not see the exact solution so I modeled my own. It uses short m5 screws and m5 tnuts. I printes at 50% infill but  am sure you can go with a bit less.

So I went to install this on an MGN12 rail and discovered it does not work. The mounting holes must be different because there is not enough clearance between the hotend and the linear rail mounting holes. Since there was no step or f3d files I went ahead and reverse engineered the original design to give more space and allow this to work on a MGN12. I uploaded both the .stl and the f3d so that you can modify this for yourself. I followed the original design print settings and feel the pet-g is not a great option based on how thin this bracket is. You will want to either beef it up a bit or print in something more rigid like ABS. I hope this helps others and saves some time.

I recently picked up a K40 laser and needed to get proper ventilation setup. To use this,  you will want to print out the shorter duct created by "Corey" here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1627210

I then designed an adapter that slides into the back of the laser where the exhaust brackets are which allows you to connect a 4" exhaust tube to the exhaust. I bought the tubing from Home Depot and this inline fan to pull the fumes out of the machine:
https://amzn.to/2DBn2aM

I printed the adapter in PETG and the Spacer in TPU to act as a gasket between the shorter duct and the adapter that I created. 

So far I am very pleased with the end result.

Keep dust and debris out of your hotend with this filament cleaner. 

I have some very old filament that has quite a bit of dust on it that I want to avoid getting into my printer. I designed this simple print which will allow you to insert a sponge into the canister and then push your filament through. Doing so should really help make sure the only thing going into your printer is the intended filament.

Went through a few revisions and am very happy with the end result. There are two versions with one for 1.75mm and one for 2.85mm filament. 

I printed at .2 layer heights in PLA and the threads worked very well.

I recently started building my Voron 0.1 and one of the most frustrating aspects was the poorly labeled bags the hardware came in. Decided to make a small hardware organizer for the 0.1. 

There are 20 drawers for the 20 items listed under hardware in the BOM. There is a tiny slot for magnets (the same one used for the V0.1) that can be glued into the roof allowing you to have a small place to set a screw while working. 

Was very happy with the end design and wanted to share for anyone else that may be interested.

I love the Modbot mascot and have been wanting to have a 3d printable version of him for some time. I had this print commissioned by the incredible talented ChaosCoreTech and could not be happier. There are two version: One that does not require supports and is printed in two pieces and one version that is a together but will require supports. I have printed the supportless version on an FDM printer and the support version on my resin printer and they both turned out awesome! I hope you enjoy this model.  

If you to print one out be sure to show it off in the official ModBotArmy discord: https://discord.gg/xPFJQNSC
