Somer time ago I mentioned there that I want to create my unique design of machine for recycling PET bottles in to 3D printing filament. There are plenty designs from other enthusiasts available online. However I want to create most compact and simple one.
And long story short I have a success in it. The article will be updated with the project progress.

Here is some video demo.
Many LCD panels operate on the unified eDP standard. It means that we can use this open architecture and use this panels in some personal projects. For quite a while I have a bundle kit which consists of a 9.7-inch LCD panel from an old iPad model, eDP adapter for this panel, universal eDP controller board and controls.
So I finally decide to make my own design of enclosure for simple DIY display.

Sometimes, when you crafting something, you need to have a surface that is guaranteed to be flat. Huge cast iron or granite plates are definitely overkill for hobby purposes. The best option that any enthusiast can find is simple thick glass made by float technology. Such glass has a perfectly flat surface without distortions. This is more than enough to have a work surface which you can use as reference during crafting or assembling process.
So i modeled custom 3D printable corner legs for it.

I am a big fan of natural-like digital drawing. And it is really cool to have some drawing tablet that you can carry with you and do some doodles and sketching on it. "Samsung Galaxy Tab S7+" fits good for this role as well. However the biggest problem of Android platform that there are not so many good apps for digital drawing and notes taking on it. However, there is one really old dark horse among them called "Clover Paint". It is developed and supporting by some enthusiasts from Japan. And I really admire the work they have done. This app has an amazing level of customization and flexibility. But in return it requires from user to spend few hours only to set it up for his needs. Considering amount of settings and possibilities it creates pretty steep learning curve. In combination with an outdated design it can give you false negative impression. But I still think this app is great and I really want to make some contribution to it.
Here is a video demonstration of how interaction with the application takes place. As I already mentioned, Clover Paint setup possibilities are extremely flexible so you can create workspace that is completelly different from out-of-the-box version. I tried to make most minimalistic and nature-like setup possible. It is good for quick notes and sketches. Also just look how great this app is according to navigation speed.
If you want to get same result, proceed with the guide.
Recycling materials by the efforts of each individual is a great thing. One of the efficient ways of recycling is recreation of PET bottles in to 3D printing filament. Amount of such machines design grows. I am waiting for some hardware to build my own variation. And while I am waiting I decide to create my version of PET bottle cutter.
After 3 full iterations and even more intermediate designs that were rejected at the CAD stage, I achieved an effective result.
