Pi Rack Testing Continued
Been busy. I only work on the Pi Rack if all my work is done, and then I limit my time to 2 hours a day. This is my hobby, and I do not want it to become my obsession. I could easily see myself spending a full day on it. I am very close to getting it running. The last pi is coming in. The PCB boards have been ordered. I am putting together my list of parts to order from Digi-Key for the PCB boards. The only detail really left to figure out is the monitor. I would love to have a 10″ monitor. The only way that could happen would be to have a monitor that slides up and down rather than on hinges. That seems like a lot of work. Would be cool, but naw.
The hinges for the fuse buses were a pain to design. I have the vision, but not the SolidWorks talent to get it done. Had the students at the SDMines 3D Print Club help me out. They are a great group of young adults, and I believe many of them will go far in life. I talk to them almost every day and listen. Many attainable ideas are being discussed there. I would love to talk about some of them, but that is not my place in this rabbit hole. That could rob them of their idea, and I will not do that. Maybe this weekend I can post some images of the Pi Rack.
