3D nSpire Dock
« on: February 06, 2013, 11:01:59 am »
hi,

I was recently making a dock for the TI-nSpire calc
what do you think of it, should i change it or leave it this way.
I think i'm going to print it in the near future :) .

the middle pice is for a connector I still have to make it, not sure if i should print that pice or make it by hand.


if you want a 3d look at it: http://p3d.in/63bAQ

Looks nice, and like Wayne said the projector would be awesome :P What program did you use to make this?

I used Modo its from Luxology, it's really good software verry easy to use and also very powerful.

for now it is only a stand but i'm going to implement some functions to get easy access to the bottom connector.

Looks good, if I were you, I would make some holes from the connector to the back of the dock for some wires, so you can keep it neatly organised.
and maybe make the bottom corners round, like the Nspire's, that'll make it look more beautiful :)

was thinking of both but i have to measure the exact radius of the corners, the holes for wires isn't so hard to make

These are not printed, and as he said in a previous post, the dock circuit board (at least the correct dimensions) still remain to do.
According to the TI-Nspire Charging bays, it is possible to charge it via the dock.
