Description
This video not only shows how these laser crosshairs are installed and work on my DIY plasma rig, but also details how I designed these holders from scratch — from start to finish using SketchUp (free 2017 version, the last free version that could be installed locally on a computer).
Full details on my DIY CNC plasma rig:
- Check out my YouTube video series on how I made my CNC Plasma rig, based on LowRider v3 mostly printed CNC.
- Also check out my build log thread with full details on the V1 Engineering forum.
- I also have a “CNC Plasma Cutter” collection here on Printables.
- Finally, some printable items for my plasma rig are made available to my patrons via my Patreon page: Patreon.
BEFORE (no laser crosshairs):
AFTER:
I may yet wire the lasers to the 5v power supply in my control box, but for now I’m up and running with the battery pack that holds three AA batteries. I am using normal (not rechargeable) batteries.
Print / assembly info:
- Prints as oriented.
- Prints without supports.
- Suggested: either 2 perimeter walls (0.6 nozzle) or 3 perimeter walls (0.4 nozzle).
- 20% infill
- I printed using 0.6 nozzle with 0.3 layer height and 0.6 wall line width, but they should also print well with 0.4 nozzle using same settings (emulating 0.6) or regular settings.
- Use two M3 x 10mm screws, one in each holder, to tighten the flanges to “clamp” the laser diodes into the holders.
