This is a fully enclosed box designed for an ESP8266 on a mesh network. These ended up costing me about $43/each – far better than a prebuilt product but not cheap. I've included a link to PCBWay where you can order my PCB Board directly so all necessary parts are included once printed (some soldering still required).
A complete build of materials is below:
| Servo Horn | |
| PETG Filament | |
| Blast Gate | |
| Servo Motor (15KG S1500M) | |
| NodeMcu v3 CP2102 (ESP8266) | |
| Wire | |
| Metal Button | |
| Pin Headers | |
| Power Port | |
| Wall Wart | |
| M4/M5 Bolts | |
| PCB Board | |
| A 10k Ohm Resistor and a 470uF capacitor |
3/2/25 Updates
- Code for esp8266 available here on github.
- Added curved arm brackets and runners which work better.
Please leave comments and I can use that to determine how much to invest in instructional documentation/assembly help!
Printed with PETG at .30 and 20% infill for most parts. See the full print for my examples.
- The arm bars I used 50% infill for extra support
- I added supports to the box to ensure the button holes stay round.
