Homemade Electric Buggy, Ep 8: Dashboard & Charge Port
In this video I finish fitting the rest of the components in my homemade buggy and replace some of the original steel panels with ABS to lighten things up a bit. I also made a custom charge port for the electric buggy using my new Ender 3 V2 3D printer and an Anderson connector. The 3D printed charge port was made with PLA so I'm not sure if I'll keep it in the kart as is for long. I could sand it down and polish it up to use it to make a mold for casting something more rugged with resin and fiberglass, or I could print another out of ABS or a carbon fiber infused filament of some kind. We'll see what happens after the paint goes on. The next time you see this kart, it's going to look a lot different. A link for the charge port STL and all of the parts that I used in this video are below.
