Servo Guardian Stand Zelda #3DThursday #3DPrinting
by Ben
Here is a moving Zelda Guardian; one step closer to the real thing! Shared by lordtron on Thingiverse:
Servo stand/mount for Zelda Guardian.
Using a SG90 servo mounted to the base of the head to rotate it. Wanted to keep the original 3d print of the guardian as much as intact as possible. So all you have to do is screw in the Servo Horn and cut out the key. The key just helps keep things aligned.
On my circuit, I have 7 pin sets, 6 for the LEDs in the legs and then 1 additional for when I insert the LED for the head. I separated the the head from the legs for future ideas, maybe the head LED can blank or something.
The servo might need a little bit of pushing to fit depending on how much your print shrinks. If it’s to lose, you can also screw it down.

Every Thursday is #3dthursday here at Adafruit! The DIY 3D printing community has passion and dedication for making solid objects from digital models. Recently, we have noticed electronics projects integrated with 3D printed enclosures, brackets, and sculptures, so each Thursday we celebrate and highlight these bold pioneers!
Have you considered building a 3D project around an Arduino or other microcontroller? How about printing a bracket to mount your Raspberry Pi to the back of your HD monitor? And don’t forget the countless LED projects that are possible when you are modeling your projects in 3D!
The Adafruit Learning System has dozens of great tools to get you well on your way to creating incredible works of engineering, interactive art, and design with your 3D printer! If you’ve made a cool project that combines 3D printing and electronics, be sure to let us know, and we’ll feature it here!
