openDog Dog Robot progress via @XRobotsUK #3DThursday #3DPrinting
Shared by James Bruton on YouTube:
Part 5 of my openDog open source hardware & software Dog Robot. It’s time to make some actuator parts with the CNC machine out of aluminium plate and ball screws & brushless motors, and combine those with 3D printed parts to make the openDog chassis & actuators. You can get the CAD and code so far from: https://github.com/XRobots/openDog/

No MacArthur grant yet. But while I’m still waiting by the phone for that call, maybe you might patronise me with your Patreon-age. Or, if you’re all out of digital cash just comment on one of my hilarious Instagram pics, pop me a Tweet or generally yell in my direction.
Every Thursday is #3dthursday here at Adafruit! The DIY 3D printing community has passion and dedication for making solid objects from digital models. Recently, we have noticed electronics projects integrated with 3D printed enclosures, brackets, and sculptures, so each Thursday we celebrate and highlight these bold pioneers!
Have you considered building a 3D project around an Arduino or other microcontroller? How about printing a bracket to mount your Raspberry Pi to the back of your HD monitor? And don’t forget the countless LED projects that are possible when you are modeling your projects in 3D!
The Adafruit Learning System has dozens of great tools to get you well on your way to creating incredible works of engineering, interactive art, and design with your 3D printer! If you’ve made a cool project that combines 3D printing and electronics, be sure to let us know, and we’ll feature it here!
