Portal radio

myminifactory

Hello and, again, welcome to the Aperture Science computer-aided enrichment center. It's a 1:1 scale portal radio, which is extremely cool by itself, but this model (not like there are many other portal radio models) also has mounts for LEDs, making it even more impressive. Or add a Bluetooth speaker inside (like I did) to make it the ultimate portal prop. Requirements: One radio requires slightly less than 1 kilogram of plastic. Translucent or clear plastic is perfect for diffusers, and natural PLA works great. Three 10mm M3 screws and two 15mm M3 screws are needed for assembly (additionaly two 5mm M3 if you're using my electronics mount). Forty centimeters of LED strip and cylindrical 5mm LEDs are required. The 5cm part is used for the screen, and the 35cm part is used for the arc. A 300 x 300 mm printer (CR-10) is needed; I'm working on a version for 200 x 200 mm printers. A 5mm aluminum rod with a length of 355 millimeters is required for the antenna. Assembly is pretty straightforward and easy, at least that's what I hope. In my pictures, I used blue-colored LEDs instead of cyan because I already had them. My build also works as a Bluetooth speaker; I'll probably upload step files for the base and top button to make modifications easier. If you need any parts modified, just DM me, and I'd love to help you out. Update 26.12: I added a stencil for the front panel and base with holes for the electronics mount and the mount itself. The mount supports two 57mm speakers and has space for a Bluetooth receiver, amplifier, or step-down voltage regulator.
