The project for this month is one that we've been talking about internally for a while now. This plain looking box has an 8x8 LED matrix inside and does a simple physics simulation, making what we're calling "digital sand". It has no purpose other than to be neat to look at while you move it around in your hand. We LOVE this thing!
This version was designed by DSK001 who has designed several of our projects. He also designed an optional base that puts it in motion, if you happen to have a TTmotor lying around (you do if you've been subscribed for a while!).
New to 3D printing? No problem.
What skills do I need? →Everything you need to complete the kit (except the filament). We thought of everything and tested it all thoroughly so you can complete each project without buying other materials.
(Note: Filament Sampler is not a kit)
We know that designs work on a standard Prusa mk4 or Bambu A1 sized bed. Aside from that, any FDM (filament based) printer should do as long as it can print accurately.
Many of our designs have options for a mini size, but that is not always the case.
Based on past projects, these might be needed/useful:
• soldering iron
• scissors
• sand paper/ a file
• metric allen wrench set
• knife or blade
We're big believers that fun and discovery is ageless. Our subscribers are as young as 9, and as old as {error: no age limit on fun}!
