3D printing - from idea to product.

My 3d printer build (Ord Bot Hadron)

I am using ORD Bot Hadron printer that I built by different parts, ordered from different places. It is rigid and reliable platform and I use it for 3 years now. Here you can see some prints.

Here you can see how it looks like

Next bot, waiting for the brain

3D printed. ABS. Ord bot Hadron. Work in progress.

3d printed LCD case

LCD 10.1" B101UAN01 with HDMI input from ebay. Selller chinatobby2011. 1920x1200. Works perfect. But it is missing case. After some work case is printed. The LCD is very large for printing case for it in single part. It exceeds my Ordbot maximum dimensions (200x200 mm). So i assembled it from the smaller parts. 4 sides and back printed separately, mounted with 1.5mm self tapping screws.

It shipped like this.

RAMPS Arduino death

So after 3 month of my 3d printer working - one day it stops to communicate with PC. After some research - the dead 5V regulator is found at Arduino board. I run it at 14V because of heatbed. The voltage at the heatbed is 12V only when I put 14V from the power supply. 2V drops on wires to the heatbed. So I must put 14V from the power supply. I replaced regulator with LP2950L 5.0. It is getting hot, but works for 2 week now.
