Superb 3D Design from Mark Ledwold at My Mini Factory

Product Designer Mark Ledwold at MyMiniFactory.com is a proponent of all things 3D printed and has been busy working on enclosures inspired and designed for our Deluxe Stereo Amplifier. Mark told us his motivation "I wanted a set of speakers to play music from my phone with an eye-catching curved design. I chose the Deluxe Stereo Amplifier Kit from Kitronik for the speakers and electronics as it had everything I needed. They've designed it to be really easy to wire everything together..."

3D Printed Stereo Speaker Set Curved Design

Mark explained "...I've recently taken up the project, so far I have created two designs for the Deluxe Stereo Amplifier Kit. I wanted to take advantage of the fact that the kit came with fairly long speaker cables by making the speaker housings separate from the battery and circuitry. In the designs the speakers can be placed any where on a desk or to the sides - but they also include screw eyelets on the backs so that they can be mounted on the wall."

Mark went on to tell us "...in the Stereo Speaker Set Curved Design the speakers fit into the blue curved base and are secured in place with a circular clip on top." The Deluxe Stereo Amplifier is contained in the Orange-red printed box complete with power switch and volume control.

"I made the main box in two parts that clip together so that I wouldn't need screws or anything extra to secure it - and so that I could print it out without needing any support material. The speaker housings also print without support. The speakers fit in place inside them and are then secured in place with a circular clip that goes over the top. I decided to design two clip for the top of the speaker, my preference it the one that just holds it in place and leaves the speaker exposed. However the second clip design also acts as a grill covering the speaker and giving it a bit of added protection."

Mark details how they were made "...in PLA using an Ultimaker2 at a layer height of 0.2mm. After plugging in the speakers to give them a test I was really happy with the sound quality!"
