Thing of the Week: Pan Tilt Mount

This sweet machine by Simon Kirkby is another great example of servos and printed parts working together to create really impressive engineering feats!  I did a search for such devices and they can get rather pricey, so this is also another big bonus to the “3D Printer Basket” of goods available to a new user of a 3D printer without modifications.

I’m also really excited about how the low-end 3D printer segment of the market has grown enough in such a short time that a large fraction of the 3D designs uploaded to Thingiverse come with pictures of actual test prints!
