Luftdaten Stevensson screen

# Luftdata? I'm a member of a Swedish citizen science project, luftdata.se, which measures air particles using an SDS011 sensor. Our project is based on the original German project, luftdaten.info, where you can find build instructions and more information in English. You can also use this model to measure other things besides particle levels. I've built a similar device that includes a BME280, BH1750, and an external tipping bucket for rain, creating my own weather station! Check out the live map of all the particle readings here: deutschland.maps.luftdaten.info/#4/51.67/20.23 The original case was made from two 87° sewer pipes, a cheap and sturdy solution. However, I wanted something that looked better on my wall, so I designed this Stevensson screen sensor holder. It fits the SDS011 sensor, DHT22/BME280, and the mandatory NodeMCU/WemosD1. # What is Stevensson? A Stevenson screen or instrument shelter is a shelter or enclosure that protects meteorological instruments from precipitation and direct heat radiation while allowing air to circulate freely around them. You may have seen some in use without realizing it, but they were first designed at the end of 1880! # Parts Here's what you'll need: * 6x middle part * 1x wall bottom part * 1x top part * 1x SDS011 holder ## Printed parts It's recommended to use stainless bolts and nuts since it will be placed outside. To assemble, simply attach the parts with 2-4 M8x100mm bolts and 2-4 M8 nuts.
