Topic: Acrylic Enclosure drawings
Hello, I built an Atlas 3d scanner from FFD prints using the thingiverse files found here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1280901
After changing the lasers to blue ones, I'm getting much cleaner scans that are approaching the 1/4 mm resolution that was promised. (BTW blue lasers also allow it to see black items without dusting them with white powder) Here is a 12mm laser mount that can be used for both left and right sides of the printed version.: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2453715 (Read the description in the thingiverse before posting feedback as editing or a bench grinder will be in order.)
It works pretty good. I think the hardware and software are solid but the enclosure leaves much room for improvement. I think that my trouble (double misaligned shell like everyone else) has to do with alignment and calibration. Alignment of the printed enclosure is an exercise in futility. Maybe if it were printed on an SLA printer instead of FFD, the mating surfaces would be smoother and be able to move things like lasers and camera mounts without such jumpiness. Not that I could design one at all much less any better than Uriah Liggett. Thanks BTW for giving us this great open source project.
I got my Atlas 3d kit from Murobo.com not a self source parts collection.
My question is: Can we get the drawings for the Acrylic Enclosure so that that those of us who have a laser can cut out own?
