depending on your patroen status - this is avialable to “we are makers” tier members - the moment you joined an automated email is sent to your email inbox with all the links ( this is in the September folder) , its the first message you get from patreon - it has welcome models, lat month projects and this months projects. so it should be in your email inbox allready :) if you still wont be able to find it, let me know :)

I just joined is this still available here or does it go to somewhere like my mini factory after the release month is over?

Rab

Where can I find files?

RedSoxRobbe

Thank you, I did not find it in the STL folder, but copied it from one of the other builds. (5x5 pin.stl). Might just be my issue, but good to go now!

Marko Makaj

In the "stl" folder there sre 5x5 pins. They are used across all my projects so you can print like 100 of them as you will ise it. The plate is empty on purpose to emphasize that there is more stuff in the "stl" folders than in 3mf - there always is. The pins are also mentoned in the pdf build guide - page 4 They are are not the same size or depth as the magnets - magnets are 8 mm, pins are 5 You need the front sode with magnets open to acess electronics anything else can be glued more and reinforced hower you see fit to make it stronger :) as kong as the front plate remains removeable :) Feel free to share thr finished one , once done :) Also, i just posted on IG the assembly video :) https://www.instagram.com/reel/DBAGkTkqyes/?igsh=ZDk4bHN3N2tjaTJk

I'm just curious about the holes in the book-back files (they're cooking in the printer now!). Are these meant for pins to align? They also look the same size as the magnets, but I imagine gluing the two back pieces (and two front) would be more solid. I didn't see any printable pins; they were not mentioned in the build files (plate 3 is empty - perhaps this was meant for it?). Thanks again for a great build. My wife will love it as our "Hallowversary Gift" this year! Should have it done and ready for airbrushing by next week!

Caio Donini

Boss, just for reference can you post the dimensions of the eye module?

Cory Sullivan

Awesome! Thank you!

Marko Makaj

I sent the links to your patreon inbox :)

Cory Sullivan

I just upgraded my membership level to to "We Are Makers". How do I go about downloading the files for this? Thanks!

Marko Makaj

Wich part is the charm ? The orientation that is included in the 3mf is how im printing everything and so far it all turned out great. Ive also seen in FB group quite a few prints. Feel free to drop me a mesasage if you have print issues, but i would first advise to check out the included 3mf and just copy print orientation

Chris Martin

Any recommendations on orientation for the charm? Trying to print it off again a 2nd time now. The 1st one let go in the last 10 minutes or so. However, the bottom looked pretty bad. Adding supports now, but not sure if it’ll fix it. Currently I’m printing it upside down from the top of the book as the bottom since it was shown as a flat surface.

Marko Makaj

those on the side are holes for 5x5 pins :)

Víctor García Castañeda

Another one, Marco. I printed the split parts. To join the book covers, I see some holes in the middle. Is this the same pin part that is used for the eye?

Víctor García Castañeda

Thanks dude

Marko Makaj

thats right

Víctor García Castañeda

Just seen it. It is 8x2 right?

Víctor García Castañeda

Sorry, Marco. I don't know if I miss it. What measures are the magnets used?

Ryan

Oh- I hadn’t realized they were a purchased part! Ok!

Michael J Coar Jr

Okey Dokey. I'll look for some. I'm pretty sure I have both 90 degree and 360 degree ones. I'll find some 180 degree ones. Thanks.

Marko Makaj

thank you so much :) hope you will like upcoming stuff as well :)

Marko Makaj

i’ll check the link, buti shared the link i ordered it from and mine are 180 . the 360 will not work, as 360 is not positional, it can just rotate endlessly, and does not “remember” the positions, so you need the 180 one … use mg90s servo ( 90s name for the strength not degree of rotation- just in case) , but you can buy any 180 mg90s sevo’s , they will work ,but they have to be 180

Marko Makaj

I can add those , but i always worry that printed ones will nto be as good as 'realiaroc ones" with gloss we can buy, bit i know there are many talented artists iut there so why not :)

Ryan

As a special request- any possibility of a vertical-slit “cat eye”?

J K

Thanks Marko! I appreciate ya!

Michael J Coar Jr

Hi, I'm starting the prints now But the link you have for the servo says it's no longer in stock. And while your parts list says it's 180 degrees, the link you provided says it's 90 degrees. Is 90 degrees what's actually required? I have a couple of 360 degree servos the same size. Will those work?

Markus

This has been a wish list build of mine for years ... I was on the fence about joining when I first discovered the patreon then I saw the book and I was in!

Marko Makaj

yes sir :D haha

Marko Makaj

im sure she will love it :D its such a cool and huge project :D haha

Marko Makaj

woohoo :D

Marko Makaj

not a problem at all, we all started somewhre, whatever you need, dont hesitate to ask :)

Marko Makaj

i do plan to add quite a few more for halloween ;) ;)

Marko Makaj

happy to hear, cant wait to see it :)

Marko Makaj

thank you so much, makes me very happy to hear that :)

Marko Makaj

oh there will be more for sure :)

Herb Veitenhans

I don’t think I’ll print the book out but the eye parts I definitely will. Would love to see this in a mimic chest, or the book of the dead, beholder, of mad eye moody’s patch from Harry Potter.

J K

Thanks my dude! Sorry for being a noob over here. 🤣

Derrick Baker

Dude you are awesome and make the coolest things ever! Keep up the great work!

Zane

You have outdone yourself Marco! This will be the first project I’m doing as I will have a complete room dedicated to all of my projects. This is going to be a very fun experience getting my foot in the door with electronics. Thanks again!

branden price

Oh I see what your saying. Thanks!

Marko Makaj

one of them has a cut thru the middle - that means the "eye" where the animatronics wil have a cut, and i don tlike that, while the other has the "eye" where the animatronics goes, cut out, so you have the same split into 2 parts, but you also have the "eye" portion of the front cover standalone, so its a cleaner print :)

Ed_F

Thank you, Marko! Something different and completely unique to play with. Halloween is going to be great :)

branden price

I think I miss wrote my question. What is the difference between the 2 versions of the front cover

Marko Makaj

as long as the pin layout is the same, any of it should work

Marko Makaj

front part is too big, so its split into 2 parts - A and B

Marko Makaj

haha no worries :) i will be posting more videos, its a bit of an advanced projects, but there is allreay a video on how to put it all together :)

Marko Makaj

google drive links can not be share here in the comments as those are public so everyone would see it. :) your files are in your patreon inbox - all of htem are in one place, if you open up your patreon inbox, you will find the SEPTEMBER 2024 folder, its all in there :) if you scroll up in your patreon inbox you will find previous months :)

John H.

Thanks. I missed all of that LOL.

Enrique Hernandez

I see a few different Arduino on their website but also Amazon has the elegoo nano board Or regular Arduino every single board which one will work?

branden price

What is the difference between Front cut a and b? Thanks

Marko Makaj

as mentioned in the post :)

J K

Could you kindly share the google drive link pls? I can never figure out where it's located here. lol, I know, Im dumb!

Vince King

Yes! Been waiting on that

John H.

Is there a BOM for the animatronic eye?

Adam Gabrielse

Nice! As soon as my handles for the katanas are done today I’ll start on this. My wife really wants one. I’ll try to surprise her with it for Halloween:) as always, you’re the man
