If when you say bristlebots you mean the company that has made a fortune selling them, then you are in error, they didn't inspire them, they stole the idea from a KZbinr.

Happened to have all the components on hand, so I just printed one and handed it to my partner. Who was delighted, so she put it on the wooden floor of our 1940 home to amuse the cat. And then the thing made a beeline for the gap under the sliding door to the library, which unbeknownst to me is open at the bottom to the air return heading towards the furnace. Panic ensued, obviously. I ended up using a giant magnet to hold it in place (thanks to the battery) so it didn't go deeper in. The magnet basically fought against the motor, so the battery drained in short order, which meant by the time we had partially disassembled the antique ductwork (wood beams and steel flashing), we couldn't really tell where it was. Got it out by means of lots of tools, and now I know I need to design a part to block things like cat toys from rolling (or vibrating) into the air return. Summary: great toy! 9/10. Do not recommend using near hidden holes in floor.

Don't enable ludicrous mode. You will have print quality issues like: Under extrusion Layer Shifts Lack of cooling Skipped Steps(on extreme cases) Degradation of surface quality The speeds above 100% are only there because of speed benchy's If you want it to go faster it's better to modify the slicer profile settings, but I recommend doing it with "tunning" the printer for optimal results in mind. "Faster" isn't better. And increasing speeds won't make it faster by themselves anyways, there's also the flowrate and minimal layer cooling times.

Nifty project! Some thoughts: 1. Another cheap, fast, popular project to sell is a 'Tupperware Orange Peeler', which is just a simple stick with a hook and tapered tip. You can crank out a bedfull in no time and plop them in a coffee mug to sell. 2. You can add text/a logo/etc. to the outside by using a different colour filament for the first two layers, which have the text/logo/etc. cut out. The main body colour will then show through. (You don't even need an AMS for this; I used 'pause and swap' for years with my ancient i3 clone.) 3. Cura has 'adaptive layers' options which change the layer height based on the angle of the surface. This will _drastically_ reduce the 'jaggies' that show up at [10:25] without the drastically longer time to print if the layer height was set low altogether. (For my printer, I want the best quality even if it takes longer to print, so I set the adaptive layers to range from 0.04 to 0.34.) 4. You can 3d print a tilting mechanism that a board can sit on and add printed checkpoints and obstacles--with embedded thumbtacks to hold them to the board--to make up a racetrack. (The tilting mechanism can just be made up of four 3d-printed springs, one in each corner.) 5. There is a version of the ubiquitous benchy that includes a LEGO brick, which many kids should find cool. 6. Speaking of LEGO, you could incorporate LEGO studs into the top of the Scooter bot. Yes, that would require supports, but you could instead try adding a 0.4mm thick vertical plate that is even with the top of the stud, which would be easy to remove and would change overhangs into bridges. Cheers!

Great ideas! I especially like the Lego idea, as this would lead to much more room for experimentation. Like what would happen if you placed Legos off-centre, can you connect several bots. Similarly you could add some holes to the design so you could insert toothpicks to experiment with and build on top off (flags, banners, etc).
@EdoPlantinga2 күн бұрын
Oh and maybe you could make the legs swappable, to experiment with straight legs, slanted legs, number of legs, up side down legs, etc. Combined with the Lego idea to add weight to it, kids could experiment what (off-centre?) weight and legs combination would be fastest, maybe do speed runs.
