Arc Reactor (with NeoPixel ring and Wemos D1 Mini)

Last crawled date: 4 years, 2 months ago

I created an Arc Reactor model from an old HDD I had and a NeoPixel Ring. I used the HDD motor and the platters as a support for the coils and the Neopixel Ring. The Neopixel is powered by a WemosD1 Mini.
I used Brim on almost all models while printing on my ANET AM8.
NOTE: You need to print the 2_claws using supports (with the claws facing up), also the NeoPixel cover needs supports.
The rest of the prints don't really need any support. Everything was printed while being flat on the bed. The 2 hinges were printed while standing (with the circular parts on the top side). If you have any questions about the printing positions please ask and I will clarify.
You need extra:
-8mm threaded rod (about 10-15cm)
-3 screws - aprox 10-15mm (for the base)
-1 screw for locking the claw - aprox 20-25mm
-1 M5 screw and nut for the hinge
copper like paint for interior(wires) of the coils (my girlfriend helped me with her nail polish collection)
