DIY3DTech Open SCAD

Open SCAD – Designing and 3D Printing a NEMA Stepper Standoff!

We will be looking at some parametric code to generate standoffs for NEMA stepper motors. After 8 years or so of looking at some amateurish standoffs on my Probotix Fireball v90 we decided to do something about so we whipped up an Open SCAD program to create the various sized versions needed for the project!

Open SCAD – Designing a 608zz Bearing!

Please visit OpenSCAD.DIY3DTech.com for more information on this and many other projects! As in this episode we will be designing a 608zz skate bearing in Open-SCAD learning to create “races” as well as how to make chamfered edges on a cylinder too.

Open SCAD – Designing a Hose Sleeve for 3D Printing!

Please visit OpenSCAD.DIY3DTech.com for more information on this and many other projects! As in this episode we will be we will be designing and printing a hose sleeve to connect a 1.5 inch ID hose into a PVC coupler designed to connect with a 1.5 inch OD PVC pipe. In this video we cover out some of the finer points of the Translate command and how to use it when set Center = True.

As in this episode we will be looking at using Open-SCAD for more than just 3D Printing as Open-SCAD is also a very powerful 2 & 2.5D development program also, so we will show you how to use it for Laser Cutting (a gasket int his case) as well as CNC Machining a flange.
