Description

A visual for teaching how binary numbers are counted. Represents 1 Byte or 8 bits. needs 8 small m3 x 8 /10 bolts.

The parts do slot together firmly. If the 1's and 0's dont line up they aren't seated properly.

The toggles are meant to be loose so gravity can do it's thing.

Other Issues:The result is decent but the design has a lot of room for improvement... 1) Number 16 was missing from the file, I had to export the stl and combine the 6 from 64 and the 1. 2) It requires a specific size of screws and bolts, which many people don't own 3) The front numbers move a lot because they are too loose, I had to use the red rings separator to keep them in place (but I will probably glue them soon) 4) The rotating parts sometimes hit the numbers 5) 0s and 1s are not at the same height!

@derrickjames

I’ll upload the part that’s missing. I hadn’t had the issue with the numbers falling out. the 1s and 0s aren’t seated all the way down that’s why they don’t align. The red parts are loose because they won’t function when tight

@Ares9323

Replying to @derrickjames :

The 1 and 0 are seated all the way down, the top spacing is just different. The red parts are fine, the numbers are too loose and I had to use the red rings to tighten them down
