MEP EP#343: Bricking Bad
Bricking Microcontroller - Watch those fuses
- Pic, AVR, STM
- Atmel ATXMEGA16A4U
- AVR studio and microchip studio
- AVRDUDE
Air Filter / Canister
- Long Running Project between Chris Kraft and Parker
- Mods on the red Jeep necessitated moving the original air cleaner
- First design was all 3D printed around 2016 / 2017
- This is right around when 3D printing large objects like this started to get fessable on a hobby printer
- PLA glass fiber
- Worked but the material couldn’t handle the underhood temperatures
- Second design was welded together out of steel
- Material was due to tool and cost constraints
- Working to this day
- Used a filter that is not manufactured anymore
- Third design is a combination of everything Parker has learned about 3d printing
- Polycarbonate seems to hold up in under engine bay temperatures
- Endcaps printed in this material
- Heat set brass inserts for screws
- Aluminum mounting brackets for 3” hoses
- Carbon fiber for the main body
