#redirect [[September 2020 Build Camp]]
People who would like to up their skills sets for building things with their hands. We focus on industrial productivity on a small scale - so all of our designs and techniques are modular and scalable. As such, what you will learn has direct applications to real-world design. For example, using the 3D printed belts and ball bearings, you can make industrial-grade geardowns for the plastic shredder.
 
=Overview=
#Remote event - with kits shipped - due to COVID
#Participation available for the world - but without kits. - kits only USA/Canada. Canada - add $70 for shipping.
#Tools are not included, need to provide some basic tools yourself
#Remote participation without kits - participate on the design lessons and classroom material, but not the builds, unless you secure parts locally or from other sources. Note that you may use Chinese suppliers (shipping time is questionable), which may work for you.
#Filament is included only for the first day sample prints. To print the rest of the projects, you'd need to get more PLA and TPU.
#3 weekends. 4-8 hours each day, 6 days total.
#Includes OSE Linux on a USB stick - for all the software, 3D printer design workbench, frame design workbench, KiCad, FreeCAD, Arduino, Cura, and ll the software used through the program.
#Participation: each day is $25 without kits, includes OSE Linux in the USA only.
#Participation: $100 for kit for each weekend.
#Kit cost - $899. $600 for printer, $25 for OSE Linux, $60 BOM cost for electric motor + mechanics kit, $50 BOM cost for Arduino kit.
##D3D Universal 3D Printer - build from scratch
##Basic Arduino-like microcontroller - build from scratch. Parts for 2 microcontroller builds (one on a breadboard, another on stripboard) and the TV-B-Gone hacker toy as an application of the Arduino. An Arduino Uno comes with the kit. $40 alone
##3D Printed Motor Kit - magnets, winding wire, ball bearings, metal shaft, 3-phase motor controller. Ball bearings for making large and small ball bearings. Small electric motor for geardown experiments. $70 by itself.
#'''Summary:''' $600 kit weekend 1, $150 second week, $150 third week. Or $25 kitless.
#No money? No problem. Apply for a scholarship, and we can consider providing you with free attendance in exchange for some work. Also - if you can't afford the materials cost - you can source parts at much lower cost if you make lower cost substitutions. For example, you can use smaller or weaker magnets, get a cheap 3-phase speed controller, and so forth. Different magnets will require slight geometrical modification of the design - but that's exactly what we teach you - how to do all of that in FreeCAD.
#All sales are final. Offer is limited, so reserve your seat today.
 
=Days=
*1-2: 3d Printer Build from Scratch: learn to build a heat bed, extruder, controller, and printer - and how you can design larger versions using the [[Universal Axis]] system.
*3: Microcontroller Build From Scratch and Programming. TV-B-Gone.
*4: KiCad and Electronics Design: learn the basics, as you design your own Basic but Practical Microcontroller
*5: FreeCAD - how to design like a pro. Create designs from scratch, and learn how to modify plentiful existing part libraries. Exercises: designing belts, bearings, lineaar bearings, and pulley systems. Needs 12V battery.
*6: FreeCAD, 3D Printing, and Design. Build your own 3D Printed, 3-Phase Electric Motor Experiment from Scratch as you continue to build your FreeCAD and 3D printing skills.

=Sat-Sun Oct 3-4, 2020 - FreeCAD and 3D Printing an Electric Motor=
#FreeCAD design - Gaining basic proficiency in designing anythign you dream of. Working with [[Dirk's Electric Motor]] and printing it.
#Electric Motor Design. 3D printing an electic motor - before this weekend so parts are ready and we build it. FreeCAD design exercises - modifying the electric motor. FreeCAD spreadsheets for parametric design.
