Additions to Sub 30$ 3D laser scanner

thingiverse

This is http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:702470 with some additions for my make. I added a camera mount that was circular by taking http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:45339 and adding a cylinder for the camera mount rather than fitting a square peg in a round hole :) I also attached a (probably too large) box to hold the arduino uno and stepper board with a lid. This is a work in progress, but it hides my horrible wiring job Instructions Essentially follow the instructions on the original here http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:702470/#instructions (instructables post is very good), but I used the following additions / changes: I printed 4x150mm 2020 and 1x100mm from http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:280318 Printed a couple of parts to join two of them for the longer side using one of the tabs from the extrusion cap extended out to 4cm or so. I managed to lose the STL for this, but it really just was commenting out lines in the file leaving the the code fro the tab from the scad file of the endcap and making it longer Used an arduino uno I had laying around I made a camera mount for a spare USB camera I had laying around to fit in the top mount of the scanner. I have been told this may be a problem since it is higher than the lasers, so stay tuned for updates. I am still working on this, and the calibration is not going well, but I'll post when I get a good scan.
