Mad Mare Studio's Linear Actuator Armor

thingiverse

Introducing my "Mad Mare Linear Actuator Armor" design, specifically created for 3D printing with minimal vertices/pixels. To ensure proper printing and appearance, each model has a specific orientation. I recommend using ABS plastic on a MakerBot Replicator 1-dual printer with a heated platform set to 115C. To complete the armor set, print one Back-End Motor Top, Back-End Motor Bottom, Shim, Shaft Bottom, Shaft Mid-section, and Shaft Top. Refer to the numbered images provided for installation guidance. After printing, wait until the platform cools down to 60C, then preheat it again to over 100C for easy object removal. For assembly, you'll need a Heavy-Duty linear actuator (http://www.servocity.com/html/12v_linear_actuators.html), #6 screws and nuts (http://www.servocity.com/html/6-32_flat_head_phillips_machin.html), a lightweight actuator mount (http://www.servocity.com/html/actuator_mounts.html), and a .770" hub adapter for a 3/8" shaft (http://www.servocity.com/html/0_770__set_screw_hubs.html). Feel free to share your feedback and questions! Enjoy printing the Mad Mare Linear Actuator Armor! =) Kris
