3D model description

How to 3D print and assemble your very own programmable and remote controllable automatic domino laying machine.

I made a video which shows the machine working and explains the assembly for you: https://youtu.be/QsAplPLtriw

Who likes knocking down absurdly long runs of dominoes? I do. Who doesn't like laying them all by hand. I don't. That's why I made this. :)

Using some basic electronics this machine can line up well spaced rows of wooden dominoes. You can drive it around corners, forwards and backwards - just don't drive into your already laid dominoes.

You can enter a list of instructions to your robot via the Arduino IDE, upload with USB and then send it on it's way to follow your instructions, or you can open the phone app and drive it live via bluetooth.

List of items used in this project and where to find them:
