3D printed DC-15a
#35
I've been working on the electronics (arduino based) for this and a couple of Cmdrappo designed DC-15S while I plod along on my Kashyyyk Trooper build. My plan was originally to have a 10 segment blue led bar mounted on the rear side of the rear sight and have it count down as ammunition is used, similar to the DC-17M electronics some may have seen. However when I received them they were a bit smaller than I expected and I think they'd look a bit silly there, so I've carved out a hole in the rear side of the magazine for the led bar and will use a 9 pin serial port (same as the DC-17M I think) to provide power to the led bar and controller chip and also detect when the magazine is not on the weapon. I've also put 2.5mm magnets into the holes for them on the magazine and magazine port.

Although I have the butt done in timber, now that I have my own printer I've split it into 3 pieces (for risk management in case it c%*ps out half way through the print) and am printing those.
