The CAD program primarily used is Rhino 3D V5.0 (cablecam.3dm) but for better portability the exact same content is exported as AutoCAD (cablecam.dxf) and Step file (cablecam.stp).
In case one of the files has a problem, file an Issue in this repository.
Generally speaking, the plans consists of three areas:
Here the entire CableCam can be seen.
On the left hand side the drive shaft in assembled, on the right hand side copies of each object with each part being shown individually.
The main body consists of 3mm thick aluminum mostly, except for the base plate where the Gimbal will be mounted on, that is 8mm thick.
These parts did undergo several iterations of design, e.g. initially some parts were 2.5D elements and had to be milled. To safe costs all has been redesigned to be pure 2D parts and waterjet cutting provide the best result. A clean surface with just a bit of chamfer needed afterwards - to make it perfect - and the cheapest way to manufacture all.
