From Sean we received pictures of his MakerBeam mini-ITX case. According to him the stock lengths of MakerBeam work for this exactly. The top and bottom panels he cut using something called the 'shaper origin' (a hand-held CNC-router).
He also used this tool to cut (and engrave) the plexiglass held by makerbeams. He was very pleased with how it turned out since it is hard to get the corners right. The plexiglass slots right in (<=3mm) but the corners need to be cut just a little to fit. The corner cubes do not have slots. For pictures of his mini-ITX case, see below.
The Ant was a successful project. So successful we never got round to make a blog post about it. The project now seems to have run it's course. Some parts have become obsolete and hard to get a hold of. Why highlight it then now? It is a classic good MakerBeam project where MakerBeam is used to frame items that are (or were) ready available and custom 3D printed items.
The UVTOWER is a musical instrument. It is made with lasers and mirrors. Adding and removing changes the beat. MakerBeam is great to hold all the lasers, mirrors and electronics.
Custom PC Hardware is a fan of MakerBeam. So much so he dedicated a video to our beams and how to use these for custom build PC cases.
3D printing is serious business in Studio Mensink. Special dust covers were made for protection. A bit more info and a bill of materials you can find here.
