DrawBot – Printed Parts

So far I’ve got three types of printed parts:

1. Spools
1. These spools hold the monofilament and are friction fit onto the motor shaft.  You can check out the designs on Thingiverse.
2. Motor Mounts
1. The Thingiverse page actually has a lot of information about the motor mounts.  They’re designed in OpenSCAD and are mostly parametric.  Since I’m mounting these motors inside a box, the mounts are designed to go into the corners of the box.
3. John Abella’s Gondola
1. I haven’t hooked everything up yet, so I don’t know how well this will work.  I can’t wait to find out!
4. Arduino Mount
1. I’m kicking around some ideas for how this would work.  Ideally, I’ll end up designing a bracket that the Arduino and motor shield can just snap into.
