Frozen Ice Castle

thingiverse

Hi everyone! After a long time, I finally found the time to share my first "bigger" project. A Frozen display stand like a traditional German Christmas pyramid has been a labor of love. The motor is driven by a microwave gear motor, and the upper part features a planetary gear that rotates the figures around their own axis. Everything was printed on a uPrint with soluble support, so be sure to try printing it with normal support instead. I've also uploaded my design as a Stepfile for anyone who wants to remix or redesign the engine mount using a different motor. For simple electricity, I used a cable with a switch connected directly to the gear motor. Here's the motor I chose: Synchron-Getriebemotor 50TYZA-4D, 4.1 U/min You can find more information on this motor here: https://www.pollin.de/p/synchron-getriebemotor-50tyza-4d-4-1-u-min-310450?&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIztGBo9HG2wIVCVXTCh1t-wjBEAYYASABEgIqHvD_BwE To connect the transmission rod to the upper part, you'll need to glue a set screw into the "transmission rod screw." This will allow you to attach it to the rod. Make sure to thread the appropriate thread in every hole where you'd like to install a screw. The figures from Frozen are from this set: https://www.amazon.de/Bullyland-12220-Disney-Figurenset-Figuren/dp/B00S9MG1AY/ref=pd_cp_21_1?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B00S9MG1AY&pd_rd_r=67fc6017-6bdc-11e8-b605-e3b847a51b8a&pd_rd_w=lSVhs&pd_rd_wg=JLv0c&pf_rd_i=desktop-dp-sims&pf_rd_m=A3JWKAKR8XB7XF&pf_rd_p=5744958458707925633&pf_rd_r=PMR9TB8EB9G6CZEHBWX5&pf_rd_s=desktop-dp-sims&pf_rd_t=40701&psc=1&refRID=PMR9TB8EB9G6CZEHBWX5 They're approximately 10cm high, and Olaf will require a small stand to ensure he stands safely.
