Bill of Materials
Description
Elevate your model displays with this handy USB/ battery powered turntable. It's quick to print in only 7 individual pieces and assembles in only a few steps. I printed the platform on Bambu's carbon fibre effect build plate sheet as I think it gives a nice floor to objects placed on it.
