3D Printed lightsaber has a glowing kyber crystal #3DPrinting #3DThursday

Lightsaber With Kyber Crystal 3D Print Header 1068x601

Awesome 3D printed lightsaber Via Hypertext!

You can find a 3D printed lightsaber in just about every size and shape to mimic every instance of the weapon you can think of, but the version we have today is a bit different as it focuses on what’s inside every one of them: a kyber crystal.

Maker Philipp Kruppe has recreated the internal of a lightsaber complete with this important element that glows thanks to some transparent filament and LEDs embedded in the print.

Krupped tells us that this project started with modelling the print in Solid Edge, a CAD programme from Siemens that we don’t see used too often by those featured in our 3D Print of the Day series.

Every Thursday is #3dthursday here at Adafruit! The DIY 3D printing community has passion and dedication for making solid objects from digital models. Recently, we have noticed electronics projects integrated with 3D printed enclosures, brackets, and sculptures, so each Thursday we celebrate and highlight these bold pioneers!

Have you considered building a 3D project around an Arduino or other microcontroller? How about printing a bracket to mount your Raspberry Pi to the back of your HD monitor? And don’t forget the countless LED projects that are possible when you are modeling your projects in 3D!

293: Skateboard Tricks – Embedded.fm podcast with Limor Fried –

Limor Fried of Adafruit spoke with us about engineering, education, and business.

Some new boards we talked about include the PyGamer and PyBadge (which also has a lower cost version).

TinyUSB, an open and tiny USB stack from Hathach.

In addition to the many excellent tutorials there are some interesting business related posts on Adafruit Learn: How to Build a Hardware Startup and How to Start a Hackerspace

USB-C to XT60 adapter #3DThursday #3DPrinting

NewImage

Shared by ubidefeo on Thingiverse:

When traveling with a TS100 portable soldering having to carry a power-adapter for it can be something you don’t want. If you’re unfortunate enough to be living in dongle-town, then you can at least make the best out of it.

Purchase a USB-C Power Delivery adapter, solder an XT60 to it and 3d print this sleek case for it.
The adapter I bought can be found here and it’s the last one, the smallest.
It allows you to select between 5V and 20V by soldering a jumper on the PCB. Mine arrived pre-set at 20V which is perfect for the TS100
Hope you enjoy this accessory

UPDATE April 15 2019:
I’ve added an alignment jig to print.
It allows you to correctly align the XT60 with the PCB and the shell.
This might make soldering easier 🙂

ZGZMakerSpace shared this project on Thingiverse!

Auxiliar piece for motor alignment and fixing for model Smart Car chassis.

How many times have you mount this car cheap model and you realized that wheels doesn´t move in a straight line?

This model solves this problem.

It´s necessary drill some extra holes in PVC base and recommended fix it near of the space for optical sensors with encoder wheel.

IMPORTANT: Support X/Y distance greater : 1 mm
