It's been a while, just a quick update for now.
The build up to the the arts festival was quite hectic but the festival was fun to do. The weather was wonderful and reactions very positive.
Unfortunately I had to decide at the last moment not to use the rotating platform. Making all the parts for the construction took a bit longer than I hoped. I had very little time left the evening before the festival to write some code to make the cube spin. I got the motor running, but the mechanics were to noisy. I think it's solvable with a new bushing somewhere and use a more suitable stepper-driver (which I now have).
But I've been too busy doing other stuff and/or didn't feel like working on the cube for a while.
Things I want to do (in this order):
- Finally finish first video (it's been a year already since I started this project)
- Fix the cube. someone knocked it over during the festival. One of the corners broke and I think I have to replace one panel.
- Fix mechanics and program
- Make new video
Here's a small clip from the build log to keep you happy for a while ;-)
