Jauges Vintage (Vintage Gauges)

thingiverse

I am crafting a secret vintage furniture for my kids. It must be possible to open it in under one hour by solving puzzles. The upper part of the facade holds four gauges used for decoration and also to solve some riddles. I drew inspiration from the excellent gauges made by myyellowminicooper, which are perfect but too large. These gauges are designed to fit into a 60 mm hole. You can enhance the lighting by covering the arc with aluminum foil. The simple gauges hold a fixed needle (glued) or attached to a servo motor. They are lit up by two diodes that aid in solving riddles. The servo support is from TerryBNZ, and I modified it for a perfect fit with the screen. The gauges with screens allow you to attach an Oled screen ssd1306 of 32x128 pixels on the front. This screen fits perfectly into its holder. To create the glass plate for the screens, I used a laminator where I passed a sheet without any documents inside. The transparency is perfect and the rigidity is good. A file containing gauge wallpapers is also available. Note: The servo motor's 0 degree mark is actually at 180 degrees on the gauge.
