Next version 'Nixie' is coming soon !

Help us to get ready with MyRobotLab version Nixie: try it !

I thinking getting a new 3D printer. So I thought I would poll people who use them to help determine which one I should get.

I am looking to get a dual head printer that will print with ABS.

So what do you all recommend?

In the stomach pulsing like a heart beat. I would like to add that to the full script on pin30

The casing is designed to receive a NeoRing of Adafruit, I still need to get one though... In the meantime we can use a led!

 

 

 

Here is what I drew a few weeks ago. I didn't try to built it because I thought I would buy standard linear actuators at a very low price. Turns out the actuators are too slow and if I get faster one the decrease rapidly in torque.

So maybe my drawing will be used after all.

I need a actuator with linear movement of 100mm

a force Nm of about 900 to 1500

The speed should be at least 30 to 40mm/s

these finger tips are made of SS-25 conductive silicone from Silicone Solutions. it is kinda costly, $50 for a 3oz tube which will do both hands and not much else.

when the wire is connected to an analog input on an arduino it senses when it touches anything. you can see the result by simply sticking a wire into an anlog pin and touch it. no ground wire used, so just one wire for each finger tip needs to go out to each hand.
