Description
Full transparency: the functionality of the elevator truly depends on the quality of your printer. There is no way it would print correctly on a lower-quality printer because of how intricate the joints are.
Make sure you clean out the motor housing really well, as the gears can get stuck. It may be a little finicky, but as long as you clean up by removing all the supports, it should work just fine. I also included a pallet and container for the elevator to unload. I am still trying to figure out the best way for the elevator to remove everything from the pallet. As of right now it can only remove one side.
I am working on the poop chute right now that will feed right to the elevator. The elevator and conveyor belt can both work on their own or together. They each take their own power.
I have another version of the elevator that is 3x the size, but I am still tweaking it. It is the same base, but it adds a lot of height so it can lift items high.
Keep checking back and let me know what else you would like to see! Also, let me know if something is getting stuck somewhere. I spent a ton of time on this model, but the need for support is really a bummer. It can get in the way. I have more planned, but would love to hear what you want to see too!!!
With the cyber brick universe, I see different “companies” that serve a purpose. Sports franchises, excavation companies, military detachments, and I created the company “Poop Recycling Co.” The purpose of this company is to execute creative means of recycling and repurposing poop. The conveyor belts can be used in conjunction with other items to remove the poop from the back of the printer and organize it for proper reuse and recycling.
I will be uploading physical instructions soon, but I recorded a video and posted it to YouTube to show how to put it together.
For supplies, from Bambu, you will need 2,030 micro DC motors included in the Cyber Brick kit, as well as 2 1:48 single-axis plastic reduction gear kits.
You will also need a motor speed controller that you can get from Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/BOJACK-Voltage-Controller-Adjustable-Driver/dp/B09P6D5TMV/ref=sr_1_6
(There is an extra green piece right under the knob that needs to be broken off. You will see the crease. just crack it off and it will fit perfectly. it is creased so it can be removed.)
USB-C female chassis. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DF2QV4PQ?th=1
Instead of the USB-C, you can honestly just cut the end off of an old charging cable and plug it in that way.
This model uses 14 bearings, but instead of the skateboard bearings, I have you print the bearings and use 6mm airsoft bbs as bearings.
