It uses practically the entire print surface of Bambulab's X1 and P1. The tray has a diameter of 240mm, practically 9.5inches.

I tested models measuring up to 40cm wide, almost 16inches, so the majority of your printed models will pass on this turntable.

About the plate, i have printed … about 15 different models, with different colors, different plates (smooth, PEI, PEO, …) and i found that it's a pleasure to have more than only 1 plate by hand. Change the plate, your model can look even better. Only for 1 plate, you will not use that much of filament, it's not that much against at least 2 or 3 plates. Like i told before, i printed and tested so many combinations, that i can tell you that my print settings are the best i found. It avoid problems, like transparency revealing what's under the plate, the axis and gears … and don't try to print without brim, it can ruin your print …

About the bottom part, containing the motor, bearings, …, it's the same, i printed about 10, and my settings give you the guarantee of a solid parts, but don't forget that it's just plastic :)

I printed everything in Bambulab PLA matte white (you can use any color, i think it look more chic in white)

-----------------------------------------------------------

About the assembly of the bottom, please follow this steps:

• you will have to slide the motor/engine in the socket (no force should be required, it have to slide kindly in his socket)
  just make sure that the motor sits on the 2 spikes
• take the small 26 teeth that you printed and put it on the motor's axis (a little force can be required)
• fix the USB adapter on the flat plate and connect the USB socke from the motor to the adapter
• place the turntable (plate) on the top, don't force it, the teeth have to be aligned, so there will only be a few mm between the plate and the tank

Your Motorized Rotating Photo & Video Plate is finished!

HAVE FUN, HAVE FUN, HAVE FUN, but don't forget to comment this project, thanks alot :)

In my print models, you will also find another version with identical measurements but less simpler to assemble, if you feel a little handy to solder 2 wires. This one has a reverse rotation and adjustable speed! This one is my prefered, due to the speed select, it's more easy to select a slow or faster speed depending on the model you want to film.
