I am planning on being at the meeting tonight. I need help with a few projects I have in mind.
1. I have been looking at double size batteries for my Samsung S4 phone. Basically most take two regular single batteries and soldier them together.. This discharges both batteries at the same time.. That is okay. Most come with a new back for the S4 due to the new height of the second battery. Some have flip covers with them too. However I haven't seen one with flip cover and a rotatable kick stand or just a kickstand.. Is it possible to make the new case with a 3d printer that has a rotatable kickstand? Would it be easier to print 3 kickstands? one for vertical viewing and two for horizontal viewing?
2. Telescope making.. I have a 13 inch mirror and a crude truss tube for it to go into. I am looking to make the scope more beautiful and to also add some automation to it like a Goto scope. I want this scope to look beautiful and not added onto. Need help hiding motors and all the stuff to what I have in my mind.
3. Need help learning to draw on inkscape or other drawing programs. I had a simple file with holes that I created for the milling machine just built but when I took the file over to make the jcode for it to work none of the holes where plotted where they were suppose to be..
Those are my projects for now. I am bringing tonight a model rocket to build. mini hones john just because I have visited many times but have yet to do a project there..
