3D Printing Projects: Toys, Bots, Tools, and Vehicles to Print Yourself

Great book with lots of fantastic projects

My son was given this as a gift. The first project we worked on was the SkyCam. The 3D printing plans, and instructions are straight forward, and although being fragile, do the job.However the instructions for the electronics are very poor. For example, the power/regulator board is a case in point. The instructions all state a 100uF capacitor, yet the images all show a 1000uF capacitor, and the schematic is missing crucial information such as which is the input voltage and which is the output. After a bit of research it is a poor solution to the problem in the first place, and a UBEC voltage converter is a simpler and more efficient solution. Disappointing, because it could have been much better.

Bought this for a mate, whose into his printing, and some great proje ts inside with some in depth techniques
