CADify Motor/Gearbox plate #36

Closed dylanvaughn closed 7 years ago

dylanvaughn commented 7 years ago

We need to create an OnShape CAD / STL version of this:

Then we should talk about whether we want to stick with aluminum or try acrylic (which we could cut at MakerPlace)

McCAndrew88 commented 7 years ago

I can get on this as soon as I get my hands on the part.

dylanvaughn commented 7 years ago

plan to use acrylic for v2 and laser cut at makerplace

McCAndrew88 commented 7 years ago

Finished the motor plate and 3D printed a thinner version of it to make sure it would be good tolerances. Seems good, and CAD is up to date. Should I look into getting it made this week?

dylanvaughn commented 7 years ago

Do you have access to a laser cutter? If so that would be great. I was planning on renewing my membership to makerplace to get it cut...

No I do not have access to a laser cutter, so your makerplace will probably be the best option.

What do you need me to provide you to get it cut on the laser cutter?

OK sounds good - I forget the process for generating the appropriate file but I think I just need an STL to start, which I will get off of OnShape.

Motor plate in OnShape is here:

McCAndrew88 commented 7 years ago

Yep, that is it. Right now V1 is set to the 3.3mm thickness of the aluminum so to make it more accurate, let me know what thickness of acrylic we want to use.
