Hocus Pocus Book of Spells

Hocus Pocus Book of Spells Arduino Voice Activated Prop This is a project I undertook for a Halloween 2018 prop to go with my family's dress-up as the 3 Sanderson Sisters. I used the Sea Lemon tutorial to do a lot of the book design outside of the 3D models used, and I switched out the stitches to real hemp cord instead of puffy paint. I made holes for the stitching using my trusty Weller soldering iron after the paper mache and painting were done and came back in with paint to clean up the burnt areas. I had to alter the animatronic eye design slightly due to space issues fitting the eye close to the opening of the book. I changed files included with this project. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TtngRH-ttK8 Credits: Animatronic Eye Mech by sideburn: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:319978 Original Snakes, Front Clasp, and Hinge 3D models by Designs by Phil: http://www.designsbyphil.com/halloween-file-share.html Check his page out; he's a nice guy who gave me permission to post my changes to his original design here.

Files Included: cornersnake.stl - printed at 0.1 with 20% infill, no supports; 4 needed spinesnake.stl - printed at 0.1 with 20% infill, no supports; no brim/had to rotate to fit on MK3 bed; 2 needed frontclasp.stl - printed at 0.1 with 20% infill, supports for the hinge/hole; 1 needed jewel.stl - printed at 0.1 with 20% infill, no supports; 1 needed in yellow and goes in frontclasp.stl sidebraid.stl - printed at 0.1 with 20% infill, supports for the hinge/hole; 1 needed backclaw.stl - printed at 0.1 with 20% infill, supports for the hinge/hole; 1 needed finger.stl - printed at 0.1 with 20% infill; needs supports/raft; 5 needed Animatronic Eye File Changes: use advice given in that project for printing: servobrackflat.stl - cuts off one servo to make room to fit in the book properly servobracketbackA.stl - if you want to glue the servo mount to the back of the base, so you can choose where to install the other servo; base_42mmB.stl is not needed if you use this file base_42mmB.stl - attaches the servobracket that was cut off on the flat to the same place I put it without having to glue servobracketbackA.stl to it; servobracketbackA.stl and base_42mm.stl from the animatronic eye project is not needed if you use this file bookofspells.ino - a short Arduino program using the Elechouse voice activation module to look through.
