- In this video I show you how to use a buck converter to power your raspberry pi (or other electronics) from your 3d printer's power supply.
Supplies and Tools (may contain affiliate links):
Buck Converter: geni.us/PMsE (Amazon)
20 Gauge Wire: geni.us/hrzBmTw (Amazon)
USB Cable: geni.us/SsAMo (Amazon)
Resistor Pack: geni.us/hvwGINf (Amazon) (mine are all 5% left over from my electronics college days, get 1% or better, why mess around?)
Raspberry Pi: geni.us/5EA5o (Amazon)
Soldering Iron: geni.us/94NY (Amazon) (looks like they don't make mine anymore, but I love this guy)
Multimeter: geni.us/0GWBh (Amazon) (get a fluke if you can spring it)
Wire stripper: geni.us/sn09 (Amazon) (love these things, mine are going on a decade now)
Nansh Screwdriver Set: geni.us/KV7m (Amazon) (my new favorite tool, got for christmas from my brother)

Sorry about the weird shallow focus. I tried to do a really shallow depth of field, but in retrospect it seems a little hard to look at, but welcome to dreamland :)
No actual vacuums were harmed in the making of this video.
Nice artwork in the background. I love the humor in these videos. Cutting the vacuum cord made me laugh.
Yeah, whoever commissioned that drawing is a genius. My daughter called my bluff though, she said, "Dad why did you cut that random wire? The vacuum cord is grey."
@@BuildItMakeIt Children, keeping their parents honest since the dawn of time.
It's always nice when you finish an electric project and nothing is burning!
Wah ha ha! For me sadly that’s not just a given!
You make great videos! Informative and so funny :)
Thanks!!! I really appreciate you taking the time to leave a nice comment 😊
Hi, great videos. What is your advice to get started 3D printing? I'm a non practicing engineer, beginner woodworker (mostly rough carpentry, decks etc), bow hunter and hobyist DIY. I initially saw your DIY archery target video. Thanks for any advice.
Hey it sounds like we would be good friends :) So for getting started in 3D printing I think it depends. If you like designing things and want to get them printed without too much fuss I would recommend the BambuLabs printers, the P1P or X1C. They are a bit more pricey, but I got one a while ago and I love it. It just prints great. If you want a lower barrier to entry the ender 3 pro has a huge community around it. amzn.to/3iWhnnO You are going to learn how to tinker with a printer and upgrade it over time. If you really want to know how 3d printers work, and programing their software and stuff then I recommend building your own printer. Since you can do some woodworking I recomend the MP3DP www.v1engineering.com/projects/project-3d-printer/ You would have to have someone print the parts for you though.
All that being said for a first printer I think the P1P for $700 if you can swing it is the way to go us.store.bambulab.com/products/p1p If you don't have the money and want to see if 3d printing is worth it for you and you don't mind tinkering and fixing things then the ender 3 pro.
Sorry for the essay, hope that helps.
@@BuildItMakeIt Thanks a bunch! Im not yet ready to design anything, but my kids might be. It would also be cool for my BSA scouts to design things and I can print for them..
Okay so all the clamps on my power supply are taken. Is it safe to wire it up to the pre existing wiring directly from the power supply? I have everything to do so I’m just not advanced enough to know if ima burn my place down or not
You should be able to wire in multiple wires into one clamp. Make sure they are in good and won’t fall out.
that pewny buck converter is not at all a good fit for this. it doesn't have propper filtering caps for clean power delivery, and it will overheat. try running a high load on the pi and put your finger on the buck converter. not to mention that those micro pots/trimmers are so unstable that they easily disturb the set voltage on any slight vibration
Thanks for the comment. I have been using mine for quite a while now without issues, but I will say my pot is nice and stiff and haven’t noticed issues. I’ll keep an eye on if I start having issues.
