3D work platform.
Make an adjustable work surface for your work bench.
Aim the platform by adjusting pitch and yaw.
Two C clamps hold the tool’s base to a bench pin or use the 4 holes in the swivel base to attach to a wooden board.
Attach cameras, sensors or other equipment.
Also great as a soldering platform with adjustable positions.
Use it for holding a powered PCB while measurements are taken.
The board can be turned to a desired position to get to test points.
You need:
- 4” X 1 3/8” Locking swivel caster wheel. ~$20.00. Source Or Home Depot
- Two aluminum 1” X 1” angle brackets.
- Four M2 nuts, screws. standoffs and washers.
- Four #6 self-tapping screws.
- 1/8” aluminum ‘first story’ with corner holes to attach other surfaces.
- FR4 PCB ‘second story’ surface to allow clamping
The wheel lock, locks the ‘pitch’ axis.
A bottom front screw locks the ‘yaw’ axis. Screw pushes a pressure plate against the swivel base bearing bell, locking it.
Leaving the two locking controls a bit loose, allows for tuning, or you can lock the controls completely.
Two angle brackets are spaced so the wheel can fit in between.
Four self-tapping screws attach the brackets to the wheel’s sides.
