This is an awesome reason to start getting into conductive filament.

It's an awesome feeling to take your print off the printer, plug it into the computer, and have it do something.

This project is still experimental, but functional, and at a good point to share it with the community to see what they'll do with it. The STEP file is included to make remixing easier.

Print instructions

This print requires a multi-material printer. I printed it on a bambu x1 carbon but would print much better on a printer with a tool changer.

Material: 

PLA- for the outer body (I used bambu pla basic, but any pla will work)

Conductive PLA- for all the other bodies (I used protopasta composite pla)

Nozzle: .4mm and below work. larger than that may cause the wires to touch.

Layer height: .2mm but not that important

Parts: Arduino micro pro

Code: Included below. Watch the video for instructions if your unfamiliar with the Arduino IDE
