SMD Turntable V1 (inkl. XL version)
Description
If you are into smd soldering than this thing will make your live much easier. The smd turntable consists of a base and a "donut" with compartments for your project-specific smd components. Each compartment can have it's own label (for e.g. R1, R2, C1, U1,...). The donut comes with a cover and is replaceable, so you can swap easily between your projects. The donut is also a very good solution for archiving your project-specific smd parts. There is a 9mm and a 12mm donut (height) available, depending on your label height (e.g. DymoLabel printer 12mm). Each compartment has a small gap to place the label in. It's recommended to use BluTack on the working surface or just silicon (a self-cutted plate or liquid silicon) to keep your smd board on place. The XL files offers you a working surface diameter of 148mm - the default one has 71mm (check your max print bed size! - no problem if you have the Prusa i3 MK3). You need a standard ball bearing (22mm, 8mm, 7mm) - the ones from your old inline skates ;-) Assembly guide: ============= For the base you need the file: 1_TurntableBase.stl For the default working surface: 2a_Workingsurface.stl 2b_WorkingsurfaceAxis.stl (Place the printed axis in the center whole of the working surface - all the way down. You can also use some glue to keep the axis in place.) For the XL working surface: 2a_WorkingsurfaceXL.stl 2b_WorkingsurfaceAxis.stl (same as above) For the default donut: 3a_Donut9mm.stl OR 3b_Donut12mm.stl 4_DonutCover.stl For the XL donut (XL working surface): 3a_Donut9mmXL.stl (no 12mm available for now) 4_DonutCoverXL.stl Tipp: If there is a scratch noise while rotating, just put some extra space (e.g. paper) under the ball gearing. Many thanks to the @unexpectedmaker for the initial idea and @davedarko for brainstorming.
