Description
This was a terrific solution to a project I had, made all the better because Ali was thoughtful enough to include the STEP files, which, with Fusion360, allowed me to make significant modifications to his already excellent design. I also corrected some strange artifacts from the STEP files that showed up in my GCODE, not sure why: 0) I shaped the pusher on the slider to suit my use case but also so it could be printed horizontal without supports - a much better result, 1) the gear hole was MUCH larger than any servo axel I have ever seen. Corrected. 2) The 75mm slider was perfect, but the 100mm slider, even though the same height and width, would bind in the motor mount. Corrected. 3) I added structure to hold a Raspberry Pi Zero and a protoboard for connection to the servo and a proximity sensor. 4) There's a weird vestigial chamfer-like shape - resembling lift from the build plate - on one side of the motor bracket that I could not eliminate in this round, but let it go because the chamfer did not impact my application.
