Working Stargate with Arduino Control
Have us print this for you
PLA from £6 inc. UK delivery on letter-sized prints. We slice, print on a calibrated Creality K2 / Bambu A1, QC and post.

Glitch has come out with a new version of the stargate that blows this out of the water! check it out here http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1603423
*************************************************
This is my Remix of Glitch's working Stargate.
I remixed this with the following changes:
- I altered the Base extensively, so that it prints in one large piece on a 150mm ^ 3 print bed ( with separate sides and a top cap )
- The base also has mounting for a NEMA 17 Stepper motor , and an Arduino UNO with a Motor Shield.
- The Gear was modified to snugly fit onto the stepper motor, and added a hole through which the Stepper motor could be tightened to its mount.
- I combined some parts that were 2 pieces into one piece so that the build required less gluing and was structurally stronger
I also have included the DialingSequence Arduino sketch that I wrote to control the project.

A HUGE thank you to Glitch for the original design of the working stargate!
****** V 1.01 Update 15/12/2014 ******
- Altered the Base to add more material to the interior vertical pillar on the micro controller side for more support for printing without support material.
- Altered the Base to have have smaller holes so it will slice properly ( 5mm diameter…
