3D Models of Fez Boards

Archive

I’m busy creating all the components for the Fez boards, then creating 3D models of the boards in SketchUp. I’m using EagleUp. Very nice software.

Should I place the models on the wiki?

Here is a sample of the Mini. Am I close? I don’t have a Mini… :slight_smile:

And the bottom…

Sorry about all the posts. Would be nice to attach more than one picture… :slight_smile:

Here is the Panda1, but I need to still draw a few components…

4

And the Domino. Also needs parts, and drawing the USB and SD card socket scares me… :slight_smile:

5

And the Cobra lacks most of it’s parts. But I saw somewhere that someone was looking for a 3D cobra…

Looks great!

This is awesome. We should start a community library for all the hobby components we use around Fez. I have a ton of stuff to contribute. I’ll volunteer to help draw some.

Is there not somewhere we can share things like this - and Eagle files - with check-in/check-out and version control? Maybe set up a github or SVN repository? I’d like to be able to “get latest” on all the design files in the public domain.

That is absolutely sweet! :clap:

Panda1 is done…

But I see that all the caps are the wrong way around… :-[

Domino is almost done. Got bored trying to do the SD card holder… :slight_smile:

And the annoying thing is that the SD card holder on the Panda2 is another part type, so I can’t use this model on the Panda2… :’(

Keep it coming!

We need those for gadgeteer as well :stuck_out_tongue:

@ realiser - seems like someone else thought the same thing about an OSH repository. It’s such a good idea, I started a new thread: [url]http://www.tinyclr.com/forum/20/4183/[/url]

nice!!!

Errol,

Did you make a lot of your own part models in sketchup or that all default that eagleup comes with?

15

Architect,

About 1/4 of the parts on the board are from the default parts that come with EagleUp, I think some of the tantalums, 0603 caps and resistors, mini usb, SOT23 and SOT223 are part of EagleUp. The rest I had to draw.

Oh, also, the USB A on the domino came from RS Components, and I think they are stingy with their licensing, so that will have to be redrawn… :frowning:

You can look at the default parts at Warehouse | Eagle meets SketchUp

Edit: This is what the Panda1 looks like with the standard parts plus the warehouse parts…

Great stuff! At a minimum, please put these in the Google 3D Warehouse. That’s what it’s for and is a great way to contribute back to SketchUp. Thanks!

These are superb! Based on the difference between the panda 1 drawings, you had to create a fair amount of your own components. You definitely get my nomination for TinyCLR Hero of the Month award (i just made that up).

Errol,

Thanks for discovering EagleUp. It is a great and easy to use tool.

How does this one look? ;D (Waiting for the actual board to come back from Dorkbot)

Eagle is touting EagleUp as a feature in the soon to be released V6 update. :wink:

@ architect - Chucky looks good! You have a few gadgeteer modules in the works, right? Are you planning on selling them, or making the eagle files available?
