Polar graph by V3rtex

Last crawled date: 3 years, 1 month ago

Started my own Polargraph project wich will include a redesign for al parts but also the software over time will be rewritten. While experimenting the NEMA 17 motors are getting quite hot. I created a part on wich you can screw a 40x40MM fan with M3 and press it on the back of the nema 17 steppermotor. Works as a charm. But all is work in progress so it will not be the final version but it looks cool. More files and photo's etc will be added here over time.
Assembling is easy with an m3 bolt with fine threads, i use m3X25mm because of the additional fanguard and fan.
