Summary

** STOP!!!! ****

Glitch has come out with a new version of the stargate that blows this out of the water! check it out here http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1603423

This is my Remix of Glitch's working Stargate.

I remixed this with the following changes:

I altered the Base extensively, so that it prints in one large piece on a 150mm ^ 3 print bed ( with separate sides and a top cap )
The base also has mounting for a NEMA 17 Stepper motor , and an Arduino UNO with a Motor Shield.
The Gear was modified to snugly fit onto the stepper motor, and added a hole through which the Stepper motor could be tightened to its mount.
I combined some parts that were 2 pieces into one piece so that the build required less gluing and was structurally stronger

I also have included the DialingSequence Arduino sketch that I wrote to control the project.

Detailed instructions are now available, click on Instructions to view them

A HUGE thank you to Glitch for the original design of the working stargate!

** V 1.01 Update 15/12/2014 **

Altered the Base to add more material to the interior vertical pillar on the micro controller side for more support for printing without support material.
Altered the Base to have have smaller holes so it will slice properly ( 5mm diameter became 4mm diameter )
Altered the Pins on Side1 and Side2 to have smaller pegs to fit the new holes ( 4mm diameter to 3mm diameter )

Updated files are now named
_17_1_x_Base-BTM_V1_01_fixed.stl
_18_1_x_Base-Side1_V1_01_fixed.stl
_19_1_x_Base-Side2_V1_01_fixed.stl

Instructions on the thingiverse page had randomly been mostly deleted, luckily I had them saved as a text file and have restored them ( to a slightly earlier version )
