forgot to mention in the video but you will obviously want to secure the power supply to the inside of the box somehow, i used hot glue but you could use 5 min epoxy or whatever. But since the machine will constantly be turned on its side, securing the power supply is important.

Hi , First of all congratlations for this project . I am a big fan of 3d printing myself . I dont have paypal do you have another method that i can do a donation? Msybe revolut ? Thank you and if i can help in other ways than a donation please tell me. Have a good day. Alexandru.

Shrink tubing would probably be good to put over the wires. It’s super cheap at harbor freight and can be shrunk with a lighter or heat gun.

There are often people with printers that will print stuff out for you for a fee. Hopefully you can find someone in your area.

Hey man I’m moving to Poland in the next couple of months and I’ll be bringing my 3d printer, I can print and ship the parts to you if you don’t mind waiting a little bit longer? I also have access to a machine shop so I’m looking into machining aluminium parts for this

@china_airguns imo the project is only suitable as a DIY. This is just the beginning. Eventually there will be a ton of different configurations available and it would just be too expensive to sell. It's really only practical as a 3d printed project but that's better imo because it will allow a level of customization not available otherwise

I'm going to use Wago 221 lever connectors for my wire to wire connections in my build so that I can easily swap a motor or switch later. A pack of 10 three-connector Wagos cost $8 at most hardware stores and they handle 24 to 12 gauge wire.

@sweetgumnyc7794 Жыл бұрын

after you finish your build can you post and confirm they worked and fit properly?ill add your link to the parts section when you do... what you're doing is exactly what i hoped backers would do. Improve the machine and help contribute to making it better and more versatile. The available space inside the case is limited so i have been hesitant to suggest anything i haven't confirmed to work myself . Thanks for your contribution!

Hello, I am so excited to have found your channel and your work! I have always wanted to get into lapidary work and jewelry work but the startup costs for all of the machines was overwhelming and not in my budget. You are doing incredible work and will open this up for so many people! I have a quick question about the 3D printer: Do you have one that you recommend? I do not have a 3D printer, nor do I have access to one, but may be able to swing the purchase of one. Thanks again! Will be buying the plans soon, and figuring out how to print all of the parts. I am so very excited!

Hi!...If youre a maker of any kind (jewelry or pretty much any hobby) you will find that your 3d printer will probably be running a lot! There is a website called thingiverse that has thousands of free 3d files for all sorts of random hacks, gifts or home improvements as well so im confident you will be happy you bought a printer , even without this project...That said, if you're a beginner, i suggest the ender 3.Its probably the best bang for your buck machine..Its no frills, so nothing fancy but its a good machine to get started and only costs a little over $150..The build volume is big enough to print this machine and besides, even if you knew someone willing to print the parts needed for this machine, i feel you're gonna want a printer to really participate in this project because i will constantly be coming out with new mods and attachments. This project will be a constant work in progress. My goal is for this machine, combined with a 3d printer, will hopefully give you the ability to make almost anything. They compliment each other. tinkercad is good free online software to learn how to make your own files and when you outgrow it you can move onto fusion 360..good luck and let me know if you have any other questions! learning to 3d model and then 3d print your creations is a very useful and fulfilling skill to learn!!

@@sweetgumnyc7794 Thank you so much! That seems very reasonable. I am very much a beginner and am looking forward to being able to learn now that I will have what seems like an awesome way to get started for so much less than purchasing all the machines separately! Do you plan to post more videos at some point demonstrating some of the uses more thoroughly? Specifically the trim saw/lapidary stuff is intriguing to me but I'm not sure how the set up works to keep the wheels/saws wet without water going everywhere. Maybe that is described a bit in the plans? Anyway, thanks again and I'm looking forward to building one and playing around with it, and will look forward to your next content!

Hi , I just got my motor and I am excited to get started using it for various things especially lapidary. I do not have access to any 3D printer. I would gladly buy all the add ones from you plus donate to your efforts with this project. what would be best way to communicate .

@sweetgumnyc7794 Жыл бұрын

a backer already reached out to me who runs a 3d print farm. He offered to print the parts for people who dont have a printer. Im waiting to hear back from him regarding cost to print the parts but honestly, the machine is intended to go with a 3d printer. The idea is that with this machine AND a 3d printer, you could make anything...There will eventually be hundreds of accessories that can be printed and considering you can get an ender 3 now for like 150 bucks, i would just get a printer. It will ultimately be cheaper and youll have the full potential of the machine . I plan on using the machine to make some projects on the channel in the future to demonstrate the versatility.

Where I live, the public library has a maker space with several 3D printers that are freely available. I've printed a few things there and it was a great way to get started with 3D printing for 0$. I may eventually get my own, but only if I get deeper into it.

Hi Ronald, if you go to the sweetgumNYC facebook page, youll see i recommend two machines, one is a cheaper option and one is a better, more expensive option. Both will work for this project but the more expensive option will print faster and allow you to experiment with more materials, like flexible or rubber type materials .@@ronaldhoppus9015

@MathonwyPrime 3 ай бұрын

With those DIMM plugs, a little bit of melted plastic on the back isn't going to ruin the plug. So, those with shaky hands, a bit less fear. Just make sure your soldering iron doesn't get so hot that it melts the plastic all the way through to the front of the plug. That's where your ruined plugs can come from. Also, don't get melted plastic into your solder joint. That will increase the resistance through that post, and you don't want that in a plug. As close to zero resistance as you can get. If you have a digital multimeter, this whole project gets a bit easier because you can test your cabling for shorts and grounds before you energize the device.

The power supply should be rated to work at 220V. If you are unsure, you can ask the seller of the power supply.

no, i suggest you secure it because the machine will constantly be turned on its side and back on its feet as its converted. i used hot glue but there are several options for securing it. if you dont secure it , i imagine the wires will eventually work their way free.

@sweetgumnyc7794 Жыл бұрын

"enough power" depends on what youre doing. A 500 watt motor could be seen as over sized for some operations but i thought it would be better to have too much , rather than not enough power, especially considering the machine will eventually be able to do hopefully everything. Also you need to consider the motors actual size. The machine and all of its attachments were designed with a 52mm motor in mind, so it wont work if the motor is not 52mm wide and if the length is different , you might not be able to stand it up or have it work with all the attachments.
