Rotating monitor - Yet another take
waveryder:
:o found my next project! Absolutely lost for words! :notworthy:
leapinlew:
I'm upset by the lack of T-molding in this project. Other than that - nice tutorial.

Disclaimer:
I reserve the right to call this solution a "just another prototype" in case it fails before the actual cab is done ... ;)
DaOld Man, thanks! Your rotating monitor thread has been interesting and has given me ideas.. Thanks for them too! Those small wheels I found at yet another local discount-store / home improvement center. 1" wheel diameter ..actually seems they're made, or at least distributed, by habo.com here..
javeryh, thanks. I was actually aiming for an even simpler solution mounting wise but that's what I ended up with, heh. Works for me. Do document your build and the rotation solution. "Keep 'em coming!!!" - Not too much more to post on this simple build. I'll take pictures if you want to know more of a specific detail or ...
waveryder, thanks! (I'm starting to think I might be repeating myself..?) Just hoping someone finds this thread useful/inspirational/whatever.. Another take etc. Keep on building!
leapinlew, so sorry, you're absolutely right...

Where did you get those small casters? I cant seem to find any that small.

I had a tough time locating those also, and also a good online resource for the 6 pole on-on switch (are those also called DPDT or SPDT?). I'm a big fan of making a shopping list for others to be lazy and copy ;)
As for those videos, I was really against the whole concept of a friction motor a few months back, but after seeing the videos and how you used ordinary cherry switches with 45 brackets as limiters, I think you're onto something good. I would assume the upgraded motor might not struggle as much personally. Might help in the long run, not sure how timeless those mini motors will be.
Totally great updates, do keep us informed!
