Folding Box for Arduino Uno

prusaprinters

<p><strong>Imported from Thingiverse, pretty old design from me.</strong></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Combines Arduino Uno and a breadboard in one compact box.</p><p>Unlike jasonwelsh's folding arduino lab it has no storage for parts and you can't keep a shield on the arduino.</p><p>That's because it is meant to be used with something like the Sidekick starter kit (that's where my breadboard came from).</p><p>There are magnets to keep it closed while carrying.</p><p>If you would like to change something, I've included SolidWorks files for the parts.</p><p>I created this thing because I needed a box that wasn't so bulky because I carry it to school everyday.</p><ul><li>14.Dec.2014:</li></ul><p>Added new versions of two parts with holes to guide power and ground wires to the breadboard.</p><ul><li>29.Mar.2016</li></ul><p>Added .step files so people with other CAD programs can import files more easily.</p><h3>Instructions</h3><p>The parts have about 0.5 mm play to allow for some inaccuracy in printing (it worked fine for me).</p><p>After printing drill the holes marked in the Arduino side for mounting the Arduino (I used 2.5 mm screws).</p><p>The magnets have to be about 3mm high and 6mm diameter. You can get them from geomag toys by cutting the magnets out.</p><p>For the hinges use a 1mm wire (for instance paperclips) and push it in. If your wire doesn't fit you can try cutting it with sidecutters and twisting the cut edge in.</p><p>Arduino piece is upside down.</p><p>Category: Electronics</p>
