HAL 9000 Replica - Electronics Project Box with Fusion 360 files based on work by Amadeus Prokopiak

thingiverse

This is a Fusion 360 design of the HAL 9000 from 2001: A Space Odyssey, created by Amadeus Prokopiak's original drawings. This work-in-progress project serves as a starting point for makers using Fusion. The main case requires significant redesign to make it printable; most parts are intended for reference purposes only. The lens is not the correct size, replaced with a 65mm domed magnifying glass. The lens bezel design needs remodeling for authenticity. Overall dimensions should suffice as a foundation. Update: Version 2 .stl files feature screw-holes for the back cover. I began printing the project at 80% size (Cura-resized) and made adjustments to fit a 65mm magnifier dome. The outer case and back cover were resized to 80.1% for clearance with front parts. Update 2: Photos display the project, resized in Cura and printed at 80% of the original size. Despite some difficulties with my printer failing on a comm error (argh!), assembled parts fit together well with minor sanding. The case will still accommodate a Pi or Arduino Mega when printed at this size. Update 3: Version 2 of the speaker cover .stl has been added, along with redesigned outer cases that can be screwed together using 4mm machine screws as shown in photos. The middle section is optional for extra space and flexibility for various electronic projects. You can customize HAL's depth by adding more sections. Update 4: A new back cover plate V6 has been added, compatible with the latest case design. Update 5: Illustrator artwork for the HAL 9000 logo and bitmaps for the 160x128 lcd screen have been included, along with photos of the project as it stands (awaiting midsection completion). Update 6: 3d models of the HAL 9000 logo have been added, as well as a second version of the 9000 side of the nameplate to replace version 1's thin lines. Update 7: Older version STL files have been removed to avoid confusion; only the final used files remain.
