Ultimaker 2+

I made an Ultimaker 2+ 3d printer in TinkerCad because I use it a lot at my school and I thought it would be interesting/cool to try to make one in tinkercad. (notice: does not actually 3d print)

images of printer (or just look at it if you have one)

put one square in the workplane and stretch it out and make it flatter. Copy and paste it, rotate one 90 degrees and group it. make 4 copies of that

Create one square and make it a bit smaller than the workplane. make it flat, then make 5 copies of it.

Take one of the 5 walls and make it a frame. Make a smaller rectangle and make it the same length and height of the frame and group them together. Then make a small skinny rectangle and put it through the smaller rectangle and group it.

create a small black rectangle and make it very short. put the text "print","material", and "maintenance" then group it with the black rectangle. Group it with the front.

Make 5 small paraboloids, and a cylinder. group them together, then add it to the front

do the exact same thing you did to make the front, except just leave it as a frame

First, assemble the 4 corners and the bottom so that the corners of the bottom align with the sides

assemble the 3 walls on the back, right, and left

add the front and top to the body and group all of the parts together

It will let you know if all of the shapes are grouped if all of the lines aren't overlapping

create or download the ultimaker robot and make it flat. make 2 copies of it and put them in the center of each wall on the right and left

create 2 rectangles and put them in the 2 back corners and make them 2/3 high as the body

make 2 cylinders and put them in between the 2 corner boxes, and make them a bit taller than the corner boxes.

click on the box that shows the magnifying glass and search "screw" Click on the longest screw and chop off the head bit

Copy and paste the altered screw until it is as tall as the other rods

make a black square the same length as the screen. make a hole in the top left corner, but make sure it doesnt penetrate the other side. make a skinny cylinder and make a hole next to the first hole.

create the screws by adding a small cylinder and grouping it with 2 rectangles making a + sign.

add 4 screws to each corner of the black box. Then, in the bigger hole put a white cylinder the same size as the hole in it. Put a screw in the middle of the white cylinder and group it.

Turn to the back of the body and put it on the right side of the body

make a tall cylinder the same size as the tube in the motor and make it a bit taller than the body

make 3 short cylinders the same size and rotate them to sort of make a half circle and attach them to the main piece of tube

make one last cylinder the same size as the others but make it a bit longer and group it

get more screws and make the head flat. create 2 squares the same size that are a bit smaller than the bottom of the design, and stack them up so it looks like the screws are connecting it.

add a little platform off of the build plate. this will hold up the title box. it is a bit smaller than the gap between the 2 corner boxes.

make a white box the same length as the platform and make it around half as wide as the platform. add it to the build plate

Add the words "ULTIMAKER 2+" onto the white box. make sure it is sticking out of the white box a bit, but not sticking out the back

make sure to group all of the shapes on the build plate or else each piece will move individually. make sure it is as centered as it can be.

create a square and make it a bit bigger. make 4 skinny rectangles and organize them where the 4 rectangles are connected to each corner

make your 4 skinny rectangles sort of like half of a triangle by making a long triangle combined withe the rectangle

make the middle square hollow and also put a small cylinder in the left corner. add some sides to each of the ends, and group them

create the fan vents by making a thin bevelled rectangle, then adding 4 circles on each corner. Attach one thin rectangular pole to two of the circles then do the same with the other two so it looks like an x. lastly, make an oval and center it in the rectangle. add one vent to each of the 2 sides

create the fans by making a ring, then adding thin rectangles onto the edges until there are 9 on each circle. then add them on top of the vents.

create the nozzle by taking a hollow cylinder on top of a cone and put it in the hole on the left of the box

add a very flat rectangle right on top of the nozzle, making sure the corners match up with the hollow square. Next, add 4 skinny cylinders attaching the top rectangle to the bottom rectangle. Lastly, put a ring on top of the thin rectangle where the nozzle would be.

Make a squiggley line on the back half of the rectangle, then put another thin rectangle where the cylinders end.

Add another ring, but taller into the ring on the bottom, then put a black box the same size as the thin rectangles on top of it

make a hole in both of the other rectangles and the black box. Group all of the shapes

put the extruder to where the bowden tube will align with the hole in the black box.

Group all of the shapes together

download or create an animal or item or something random to put on your build plate. (optional) I put a jaguar because its my school mascot

sit back and admire your work
