Thanks! I’m in the process of just modifying the files and making a little video going over why I changed certain things and going into detail as to how to build one yourself without making the mistakes I did. Just check back on my Patreon in 1 or 2 weeks and you will be able to see the stl files and extra video :)

This is great. Subscribed because I love the way you broke it down. It's things I've ran into myself (tolerances and the like). I'm sure there was a part where you said "I know I have to compensate for the dowels, but I didn't for the whole design"....*meh* we live and we learn.

I would recommend getting a jigsaw, even a handheld one, and getting rid of the cheese grater. Screw on a fan grill to be safe, and you should have much less air restriction and maybe noise.

@braixeninfection63127 күн бұрын
I like the edge case design. I would have also gone for a hard cover to then snap over the screen. Giving it space to hover over the screen and extra thick so it hopefully wouldn't crush in. Also steel dowels are totally underrated. So much better than the filament pieces people love to use for hinges etc.
@TimTheEngineer967 күн бұрын
Thanks! I agree with the snap fit I might try to do this in the future! Yes I’m still surprised most people don’t use steel dowels, I think the hobby is maturing still but eventually it will get there!

Had a great time watching, thanks a lot :) Also, if you have any tips on how to improve cad skills then lmk because I’m a student learning design and I’d say I’m like mediocre at best and I want to improve but my teachers focus on more practical aspects rather than cad

Omg... There is "engineer" in your name and you drill holes like the first human xD. And i did´not want to say anything about your "electric" skills :P Protipp: Put that vacuumed bag of nylon in another airtight container. Ikea Box 10,6l for example. The transparent bags can let some moisture in over the time. This is fine for ABS/PETG and so on. For Nylon better use the silver bags with aluminium coating.

Nylon is nowhere near from being the "Toughest"..... PEEK is superior in basically...... everything... Let's not even talk about, PEEK-GF or PEEK-CF... "MAINTAINING MODULUS To further illustrate the high temperature capability of PEEK, Figure 5 shows how the flexural moduli (bending stiffness) of nylon 6/6 and PEEK vary as a function of temperature. Nylon, like many common plastics, loses much of its mechanical stiffness once the material is heated to 176 F°. In contrast, PEEK maintains most of its stiffness up to temperatures approaching 300 F°. PEEK's ability to maintain stiffness at elevated temperatures is one of the reasons that it is so often specified for high temperature applications in the aerospace, semiconductor, medical, and food processing industries. The stiffness of PEEK can be greatly increased by adding various fillers and reinforcements including glass or carbon fibers. Figure 6 shows the flexural modulus of unfilled PEEK as well as 30% glass fiber filled PEEK and 30% carbon fiber filled PEEK at various temperatures. As shown on the graph, the addition of glass reinforcement essentially doubles the stiffness of PEEK and the addition of carbon fiber more than quadruples the stiffness of the material. In fact, the room temperature flexural modulus of carbon fiber filled PEEK is 3300 kpsi, one of the highest values of any commercially available thermoplastic."
