  • Obsolete Potentiometer Controls: 3D Printing to the Rescue!

    shabaz
    shabaz
    I suspect this is a common problem; lots of old Hi-Fi equipment have worn out pots and other controls, and it can be quite difficult locating exact replacement parts. A friend had a music device (It’s a sort of DJ CD player with a lot...

    We got a few off-the-shelf pill organizers for my grandma to try out, I decided to upgrade one of them with a 3D printed mechanism. The mechanism allows you to take only one box and won't let you take another until you put back an empty box at the top.
