  • I am Rachael. I am from South Carolina. I am a Junior at Principia College studying Mass Communication and Dance.
  • The open source movement is sharing ideas to grow grander ones.
  • I am attracted to it, because therefore more people get to be involved and some ideas that could not be developed before can get further developed. It is teamwork.
  • My Jellybox uses Open Source Software and the things that I'll print with it are going to be from the open Source movement.
  • I think in the future, there will be some big things created!

BugBox.jpeg Bug Catching Box Made on FreeCAD https://3dprint.nih.gov/discover/3dpx-012372 This design was inspired by John Lovseth and was created for him. He plans on catching caterpillars, frogs, etc. with the box. He was blown away, super excited to see the bug box. He was also glad that he got to keep it. It was a long project to complete and one that I was surprised that came to life by ME! I do not ever build things, so to have this project actually come to life, was amazing. This project needs heat set inserts, screws, and mesh wire to go across. The rest is all 3D printed on a JellyBox Printer.
ChickenFeederWithRoof.jpg Chicken Feeder with Roof Made on FreeCAD. Project for the OSAT project. This idea came from Appropedia when I saw a chicken feeder. I thought about how I could make my design different. I asked my mom since she has chickens. She said sometimes she forgets to bring the chicken food in when it rains so maybe it could have a roof on it. So, I came up with an idea of making a chicken feeder with a roof on it. It's small, so it would only be for one chicken at a time. The roof, I had to print 3+ times. it gave me difficulty since the filament fell over while it was printing.

Abstract

It is appropriate, because it is helpful for people who have chickens. People who have chickens, go outside each day and let their chickens out as well as place food out in a feeder. Sometimes it rains & owners forget to bring the food in & then the food gets soaked. With my project, chicken owners won't have to worry about bringing the food in or worry about it getting soaked.

Bill of Materials

PLA = $2.00

Tools needed for fabrication of the OSAT

  1. Jellybox or similar RepRap 3-D printer
  2. PLA
  3. FreeCAD
  4. Yard Stick
  5. Cura

Skills and Knowledge Necessary to Make the OSAT

  • Know how to work FreeCAD, Cura, and have access/knowledge to a 3D printer

Technical Specifications and Assembly Instructions

Assemble all the sides in Cura. Then scale them up. Print them. Bring the roof into Cura. Scale it up to the same size as the feeder. Print it. Put the objects together.

Common Problems and Solutions

  • I had issues with sizing mine when creating it. I should have made it bigger so I didn't have to scale it in Cura. It worked out anyways though. However, I had to print the roof several times, because my filament fell over towards the end of the print every time. It took 3 hours to print, so I did not want to hang around and watch it print and make sure that it did not fall over. I think a way to fix that issue would be to stay around to watch it.

Cost savings

  1. At an estimate, this should cost about $2.00 from the filament I used.
  2. A chicken feeder in general costs about around $10.00+ and that includes the bucket to hold the food/water. It also feeds more than one chicken.
  3. This saves at least $5+
