Ohmkara Breadboarding MultiTool: Electronics Prototyping

[sgraber]

I saw this on Kickstarter last night and figured it would be easy to quickly mock one of them up in Inventor, so here you go:

I provided both the STL and IPT for those with Inventor.  I'm only posting it here and not on any of the other "Thing" sharing sites.  The two things I did not implement were the IC straightener and the wire gauge, but those wouldn't be hard to add.  I printed one and will bring it to the Hive tonight.

Essentially what this tool does is allow you to quickly make jumper wires for breadboards (and I could have really used this last week!).  See the below pictures:

Sweet, thanks!
This is something we could all print for give-aways.

FWIW it's a really quick print - maybe 1-1.5 hrs? FYI I *would* have printed it in yellow, but I didn't have any.

Oh, these might be interesting to give away at all of the Arduino classes!

Anything else you want added to that tool?  I can easily add it...

Great job Shane.

An ATM machine maybe

LOL, that would be one thing I can't add.  

I was thinking more along the lines of breadboard "stuff"!

Updated the model last night after I got home:

Nice work Shane.
Great giveaway/demo piece.
looks really handy, I need to print me one.

what are the 3 bumps for?

A hole to hang it up on your pegboard tool board would be nice.

GAH!

Of course.

Was almost about to print one too, will wait for update.

[sgraber]

The 3 bumps are there to stand it off the table a bit so it's easier to pick up.

Glenn: Use a drill?

D'oh! A hanging hole would be an obvious thing. I'll add it tonight.

[bvandiepenbos]

the hole has to be honeycomb shaped of course:)

[sgraber]

LOL ok

[sgraber]

Done, the hex hole is added!
