CraftBot Custom Front Door

thingiverse

2015-02-08 Door completed This is my very first mod for CraftBot. I am creating a custom front door with no drilling involved, so my CraftBot can print in ABS effortlessly. My goal is to minimize tool usage while achieving a look that mirrors the CraftBot perfectly. I have also designed the door handle with a built-in magnet to simplify opening and closing the door. Please adjust the length of the door frame in your slicer to fit around the acrylic sheet, as this will keep it sealed tightly. Omitting this adjustment might result in some gap between the panel and the CraftBot. The hinges are mounted on the left side; if you prefer a right-side mount, just mirror the model in your slicer. Please feel free to alter the design to meet your needs perfectly. Instructions Parts List: 1) Acrylic Sheet (clear) - 11" x 14", 0.06" thick - Find this at eBay:http://www.ebay.com/itm/Plastic-frame-11-x-14-or-sheets-for-picture-frames1-16-060-clear-acrylic-/201269750137?pt=Photo_Frames_Display&hash=item2edc9ca979 2) Magnet (1pc) - Find this at Home Depot:http://www.homedepot.com/p/Super-Magnets-1-2-in-Neodymium-Rare-Earth-Magnet-Discs-6-per-Pack-07046HD/202526367 3) M5 0.8 x 40mm alloy metric socket set screws (2pcs). This is used to join the two hinge parts together. The door swings around these screws.http://www.homedepot.com/p/Unbranded-M5-0-8-x-40-mm-Alloy-Metric-Socket-Set-Screw-2-Pack-10628/203540338 4) M3 x 12mm socket screws (2pcs). This connects the hinge to the CraftBot.http://www.ebay.com/itm/10-50-100pcs-Metric-Thread-M3-304-Stainless-Steel-Hex-Socket-Head-Screw-Bolt-Nut-/361012121675?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&var=&hash=item540dffd04b You'll also need some solvent glue to secure the acrylic sheet to the hinge. I used Plastruct PLS00002, which bonds extremely well between ABS hinges and the acrylic sheet.
