To make the motor mount, I used a Prusa Mini 3D printer with generic plastic as the filament and set the print settings to 0.15mm QUALITY. Based on the measurements of the motor, I increased the size of the hole for the output shaft to avoid any conflict with the tolerance with the Prusa Mini or the motor itself. After I printed the motor mount, the output shaft of the stepper motor fit well into the cutout. The screw holes were aligned with the proper cutouts in the motor mount.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_498\" style=\"width: 235px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-498\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-498\" src=\"https:\/\/portfolio.wcu.edu\/jhenry4-engr\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1864\/2023\/10\/IMG_5783-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-498\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Final Product with Stepper Motor<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_493\" style=\"width: 1080px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-493\" class=\"size-full wp-image-493\" src=\"https:\/\/portfolio.wcu.edu\/jhenry4-engr\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1864\/2023\/10\/Front-side-of-motor-mount.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1070\" height=\"662\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-493\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Front side of motor mount (in mm)<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_495\" style=\"width: 411px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-495\" class=\"wp-image-495\" src=\"https:\/\/portfolio.wcu.edu\/jhenry4-engr\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1864\/2023\/10\/Top-side-of-motor-mount-300x180.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"401\" height=\"241\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-495\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Top side of motor mount (in mm)<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_494\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-494\" class=\"wp-image-494 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/portfolio.wcu.edu\/jhenry4-engr\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1864\/2023\/10\/Side-of-motor-mount-300x190.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"190\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-494\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Side of motor mount (in mm)<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In order to mount the stepper motor to the chassis of the Firefighting Arduino Capstone Project, we needed to create a mount that could hold the stepper motor in place and attach properly to the chassis.
