These metal wheels are tough stuff! We do not recommend using them directly on our aluminium extrusion, as these wheels will wear the extrusion out over time. Instead, these wheels should be paired with a steel V-Groove rail, many styles of which can be installed onto our extrusion. These are the...

These are stainless steel M3 hex nuts - suitable for use in small hobbyist electronics, including 3D printer builds. M3 is a common size for mounting electronics. Many control boards, displays, endstops, and heated beds work with this size of hardware. Specifications M3 Thread Stainless Steel, A2 304 DIN 934 Standard 25...

These metal wheels are tough stuff! We do not recommend using them directly on our aluminium extrusion, as these wheels will wear the extrusion out over time. Instead, these wheels should be paired with a steel V-Groove rail, many styles of which can be installed onto our extrusion - we don't yet...

These nut blocks are one of the easiest ways to integrate a lead screw driven axis into your build! On one side they have recesses for our M5 low profile screws, and on the other recesses for M5 hex locknuts - this allows these blocks to be fairly flexible in how they're...

These precision shims have an outer diameter of 13mm, an inner diameter of 8mm and are 1mm thick. They're a great match for 8mm diameter lead screws, and are one of the components needed along with our lock-collars and threaded rod plates to create a sturdy linear axis - see the included drawing...

These heavy duty T-shaped mounting plates are a great way to securely fix two pieces of V-Slot extrusion together! Made from 4mm thick aluminium, they feature 5mm holes - suitable for our M5 low-profile screws - on a 20mm spacing. Specifications Material: 6105-T5 Aluminium Alloy Dimensions: 60 x 60 x 4mm

Need a hand? These handy handles help you add a handhold onto our extrusion, making your creations easier to grab, lift or carry. We include two 10mm M5 screws, and two M5 tee nuts - everything you should need to get the handle mounted. Specifications Material: Black Plastic 90mm between mounting holes See...

These threaded rod plates can be used to mount a NEMA 17 motor in place, and are an easy way to set up a lead screw or threaded rod driven motion system. For a quick and easy solution you can mount the motor directly to the plate, or if you'd prefer a more solid...

These plates can be used to build a compact gantry that will travel along the 20mm edge of our V-Slot extrusion. They can be used on any side of 20x20mm V-Slot, or the thin sides of 20x40, 20x60 or 20x80 V-Slot. Three slots along the edges that face 'along' the extrusion...

The LIS3DH is a very popular low power triple-axis accelerometer. It's low-cost, but has just about every 'extra' you'd want in an accelerometer: Three-axis sensing, 10-bit precision ±2g/±4g/±8g/±16g selectable scaling Both I2C (2 possible addresses) and SPI interface options Interrupt output Multiple data rate options 1 Hz to 5Khz As low as...

This super small mono amplifier is surprisingly powerful - able to deliver up to 2.5 Watts into 4-8 ohm impedance speakers. Inside the miniature chip is a class D controller, able to run from 2.0V-5.5VDC. Since the amp is a class D, it's very efficient (over 90% efficient when driving an 8Ω speaker at...

Double up your power adapters with this wonderfully simple 2-way power jack splitter. All you have to do is connect a standard 5.5mm/2.1mm sized plug into one end, and behold, two identical plugs to use! We like the rugged moulding on these adapters, and they're really handy when you have a project...

Because the Arduino (and Basic Stamp) are 5V devices, and most modern sensors, displays, flash cards and modes are 3.3V-only, many makers find that they need to perform level shifting/conversion to protect the 3.3V device from 5V. We do have some other handy level shifters in the shop, from the...

Love FLORA but want a bite-sized version? Look no further, GEMMA is a tiny wearable platform board with a lot of might in a 1" diameter package. Powered by an ATtiny85 and programmable with an Arduino IDE over USB, you'll be able to realize any wearable project! We wanted to design a microcontroller board that...

Add Internet to your next project with an adorable, bite-sized WiFi microcontroller, at a price you like! The ESP8266 processor from Espressif is an 80 MHz microcontroller with a full WiFi front-end (both as client and access point) and TCP/IP stack with DNS support as well. While this chip has been very...

These push to fit adaptors (also known as one-touch pneumatic couplers) are the easiest way to attach PTFE (or Teflon) tubing to your extruder or hotend. The PTFE tubing simply pushes into the blue fitting - and it holds tight no matter what. The tubing cannot be removed by either pulling...
