TankController-Housing

The Tank Controller project utilizes a half-shield attached to an Arduino Mega. This repo holds the housing to hold all the components in a splash resistant container.

Software Requirements

1. FreeCAD - Using version 0.18, this 3D parametric modeler was used to created the housing.

Viewing and Editing the Housing

1. Clone this repo to your local computer.
2. Open FreeCAD.
3. Using the menu File -> Open.
   • Navigate to your local repo location.
   • You may open any of the *.FCStd files.
   • The Skirt CAD file is missing, see #3.
4. View the model.

Meshes

The mesh files generated from the CAD files have been saved in a folder called meshes. These files may be used to 3D print the housing.
