Rotating Carousel for Parts Containers

prusaprinters

Purpose<h2><font color="green">This project is in response to the mountain of parts I keep collecting. So much so, that I’ve now filled four different categories of parts, I have now created a carousel, that will hold all of these, allowing a stepper motor to turn a platter, on which the containers sit..</font></h2>------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<font size=5><font color="blue"><i>Main Components</i>:</font>**<font color="blue">The major components that make this project work are;</font>**<font color="blue">1/ An Arduino Mega 2560 (you could also use a due, which would run faster)2/ A 3.95 inch (RED) touch screen display3/ A4988 Stepper Driver4/ My board design for Power Supply & relay5/ 608zz bearings (skateboard wheels) for the carousel to rest on6/ Springs to allow the carousel to maintain a level base for containers7/ A stepper motor Nema17 x 39mm (approx 1.5 Amp per phase) I used 17HS15-1504S-X1 Nema 17 Stepper Motor 45Ncm8/ NJC5002c Hall-Effect (magnet) sensor</font>----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------This is my fifteenth __'Thing'__, & also my fifteenth __'Fusion 360'__ design.My other projectsWire bobbin:                            https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4946929Flux Funnel:                             https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4946257Large Spool holder:                  https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4816080TUSH with Linear Bearings:    https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4815574T-962 Modification:                      https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4760915Desiccant funnel:                      https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4716424Case for 3.5" VGA Display:      https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4291794Sandpaper Holder with magnets:  https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4213700Gear Driven TUSH:                  https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4196767Tight fitting Container & Lids:  https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4158760Ride RD6006 Case:                 https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4073804Micro Pump Holders:               https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5164094Containers for Carousel           https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5199867Dremel Jigs for circles       https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5267056------------------------------------------------<h2><font color="green"><b>Parts List:<b></font></h2>-------------------<font color="green">3D Printed Parts:</font>1. 8 x bearing Caps2. 8 x Outer Bearing Holder3.
