MakerBeam
 

MakerBeam is a Mini-T open-source building system. Mini-T is a miniature version of T-slot (a technology that is widely used for industrial automation, robotics and machine enclosures.) Not only is it small enough to work as a model building system, but it's also precise and strong enough to build real machines and robots. It consists of square 10mm extruded aluminum beams, various connectors and the hardware necessary to build just about anything.

This stuff is very cool, and there is absolutely no end to what can be done with it. Motor mounts can bolt directly to the beams and with the use of our small angle brackets, you can mount servos as well. Because MakerBeam is open-source, you're encouraged to develop and build your own pieces to interlink using the Mini-T standard, even further expanding the possibilities. Check below for the extrusion profile.

Note: In case you have trouble distinguishing between bracket angles, each bracket is conveniently engraved with it's angular measurement (albeit in tau radians).

Contains:

  • 4x - 30cm beam
  • 8x - 20cm beam
  • 6x - 15cm beam
  • 16x - 10cm beam
  • 8x - 6cm beam
  • 8x - 4cm beam
  • 12x - outside corner bracket
  • 12x - 45 degree bracket
  • 12x - 60 degree bracket
  • 24x - 90 degree bracket
  • 1x - bag of bolts
  • 1x - bag of nuts

  1. Interesting construction system

    Posted by Andrew on 7th Dec 2011

    This arrived from Proto-Pic well-packed in a sturdy mailing tube. The aluminium profiles seem well made, but have a few bits of loose metal on them (you'll want to wash your hands after handling them the first few times). I haven't built anything yet but look forward to lashing together an X-Y mechanism for a plotter.
