This entry will be discussing about the continuity development for decorating the MO-3 crank.
I've 3D modelled 3 items for printings:
- 2 Handles (UpDown and LeftRight)
- KEV-7 Leap Motion holder
I took atleast 2 days prototyping the size of the 3D printed prototypes to see if it fits in the crank's handle. It took few prototype to find the correct scale.
After settled with the correct scale, I've loaded up the Tronxy X1 3D printer with the handles. The first print was a success while not so for the other print. It was too big and technical error that causes the model to be displaced in layers. Thus, I loaded the same model and printed it again. It failed due to knotted 3D filaments. Third try was a success. Total it took 2 full nights to fully print 2 handles.
After that I've loaded KEV-7 Leap Motion holder into a bigger 3D printer (beside FabLab's main Mac) and start printing the model. Due to too much pink 3D filaments, Ron and I decided to use the pink filament for the Leap Motion holder and paint it with white spray paint.
