Quick and dirty stepper-motor driver tripod turret
Adding more guns to the... erm, gun.
I thought I’d knock this project out quite quickly and get another quick win under my belt, but the end result has proven to be a little disappointing. (hey, @avernos did say the other day he’d be interested to see a few failures as well as the crowning successes on my project blog!).
So to jazz things up a bit, I took the gun off and printed a number of replacements.
A 5mm neodymium 1mm magnet is glued to both the turret and the weaponry. So you can easily change between an auto-cannon, bolt-gun, laser cannon, missile launcher and mortar.
Even if the electronics wizardry isn’t as impressive as hoped, there’s no reason not to have a cool model anyway, is there?
