![]() ![]() I printed the cores from black PLA, and used 0.5mm copper wire for the windings. Instead of using the stators from a real motor, I made these from scratch so that they are the exact dimensions that I want. I think they give a real electromechanical look to the whole saber. ![]() They are indented to resemble the look of motor’s stator windings. The next thing I printer were these coil pieces. It does make everything slide together a little easier though. However, everything is well within 0.1mm probably closer to 0.05mm. This is because the laser cut ON the line instead of INSIDE the line, burning away a little bit of material. The holes are a hair larger than I had spec’d out. The temporary laser cut acrylic chassis disks are working great. However, I am happy with the overall fit, and the look of the aluminum tube stock. For the final version, I will either try printing these pieces using my resin printer, or print again in PLA using higher settings and sand/paint the parts. Personally, I think these look really bad. To make it look a little more presentable, I wrapped some of the flat surfaces in aluminum tape to give them a metal look. I 3D printed the rumble motor and speaker holder using black PLA. I started assembly by working from the emitter end. ![]() I really just want to see what everything will look like assembled and make sure it actually fits inside the Graflex chassis. For this test fitting, I am going to be using a combination of 3D printed and laser cut placeholder parts, and aluminum and brass components that will be used in the final assembly. With all the planning complete, it is time to start on initial part fabrication and a test assembly of the chassis. ![]()
