sandTable

A 12" kinetic sand table that draws patterns in sand. A steel ball rolls under glass, pulled by a magnet on a polar arm underneath. The case is about 12.5" across and 5" tall. The parts are 3D-printed for a Bambu P1S and designed in SolidCraft.

  • sand-table-v2.solidcraft: the printable design. Bodies named REF_* are bought parts, modeled for fit only.
  • sand-table-v2-assembly.step: the full assembly, for viewing in any CAD tool.
  • print/: STL files for every printed part, numbered in print order. Print 00-fit-test-coupon first.
  • design-notes.md: how it works, dimensions, parts to buy, hardware list and print settings.
  • sand-table-v1.solidcraft, mechanism-mockups.solidcraft: earlier layout and mechanism studies.
