We've partnered with Vectric, maker of the incredibly popular VCarve Pro and Aspire CNC design software products, to make our standing desk project available. This time we are going beyond offering the project sources and resources to help people reproduce it, we are actively looking to moderate a community design effort on Vectric's V&CO forum to improve the design and show off the results at the 2018 Vectric User Group Meeting in Chicago, IL.
We've organized the BOM into two tables. The "Base BOM" table contains parts of the design that are "Stable" and unlikely to change much as we iterate this design. The second, "v1 Syncronization and Locking BOM" table is more likely to change between now and the 2018 User Group Meeting.
Note: We will preserve the published v1 Standing Desk source material.
For this project we are hosting the Aspire project files and instructions on Vectric’s V&CO portal. You can read more about this project, download the project, and learn how to get involved on the MakeAStand project page!
