3D printed braiding machine

In this video I build a 3D printed braiding machine.
The braiding machine was recreated from old photos, from the early days of braiding machines. The braiding machine works really great. So far I have created about 50m of cord without any problems. The output is 42cm per minute. A 24V DC gear motor drives the machine. 6 bobbin holders are used. A bit tricky was the device for tensioning the single cords. But this works perfectly now. If you change the gear ratio, it is also possible to produce cords with a core.
All parts are easy to print. Supports are included in the 3D models

Attention: Not all 3D models are available. These will be revised.

The new version you can download from the video description.
