Pottery Wheel

prusaprinters

<p>My wife wanted a new hobby for the Quarantine, So I made her a pottery wheel from 3d printed parts and 3d printer parts.</p> <p>Would you sacrifice your printer for love?</p> <p>(p.s. It works really really well, she made amazing cups with it)</p> <h3>Print instructions</h3><p>Print the parts...<br/> The wheel should be printed from PETG with high infill 40% - 50% (for weight and Structural strength).<br/> Install 4 X m4 threaded inserts in the stepper motor socket.<br/> Install 4 X m3 threaded inserts in the arduino socket (non critical)<br/> Install the motor, and tighten it.<br/> Install the arduino with screws to the base.<br/> Connect the arduino to the motor with a stepper motor driver.<br/> Install a 12 V switch, and connect to a 12 volt power supply.<br/> You need a 5mm flange to connec the wheel to the stepper motor.</p> <p>Ta Da!<br/> you got yourself a working throwing wheel.</p>
