Animated delta bot

thingiverse

This OpenSCAD design, inspired by http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5998, allows experimentation with a deltabot and various arm lengths. Key parameters can be altered on-the-go, while the model tests coordinate transformations and practical reach for specific arm setups. It also features reusable elements like 3D line and toolpath rendering. Load the design in OpenSCAD, enable animation view, specify framerate (e.g., 20 FPS) and number of frames (160 steps for visible movement), and ponder if this is a viable 3D printer design with printable mechanics and extended reach beyond parts' size. Consider also the Arduino's ability to handle calculations.
