Pictures missing

[THX2112]

Many of the existing pictures are missing, and a lot of boxes don't have pictures or renderings. This makes it hard to figure out what the parameters do, or what the final box should look like without a lot of trial and error.

Yeah, making good pictures is difficult and a lot of work. I am especially bad at taking photos. So if you could take some and either open an PR or attach them here that would be a great help.

I took some photos, please use it at your own convenience.

Thanks! See https://festi.info/boxes.py/Console?language=en for the new image!

has anyone built the rotary? it is kinda difficult to understand since there are lots of parts.

has anyone built the rotary? it is kinda difficult to understand since there are lots of parts.

Yes. But as it currently is it's not that great and should probably be improved before anyone else builds one.
The contraption consists of 3 parts that are put on an aluminium profile:

At the very top of the drawing are the parts for the motor block. It has two rollers that are driven by an NEMA 23 stepper by a timing belt. The pulley for the motor itself is not included as the one I used already had one.

Below is a second block/box that is intended to hold the aluminium profile at the other end. Both of them have hooks to allow hanging the whole thing between to knifes of an knife table. This in theory saves a bit of usable height but in practice is just too much of an hassle and the hooks are too fragile anyway. So this pieces is not even needed.

The bottom half of the drawing (starting with the row of small rectangular pieces) is a scissor lift carrying to freewheeling rollers. The rollers are shown in the drawings but must be deleted before cutting. The problem is that the scissor lift is just too complicated and not rigid enough. One solution would be to just have a box with two rollers that slides on the aluminium profile and angle the whole thing instead of raising and lowering only the rollers.

The whole thing also misses a couple of features regularly found on professional rotary attachments like adjustable stops and rollers holding down the work piece.

If you want to build one I might just program some improvements. This is more likely to happen if you have an idea what features you want. Often making decisions on how things should look like are much harder than actually make them look that way. Alternatively you can just build the motor block twice and leave the rollers on the second block turning freely.

Here's a picture. I'll add it to the generator, too. It still doesn't show very clearly how the scissor lift is put together. But you really shouldn't anyway...

These two may also be useful, although no the best quality...

Well, still a lot better than no image at all. Added as 928e88f Will update the web instance soon.
Thanks a lot!
