I made a Wire EDM for a hackathon!



Happy to answer questions in the comments!
Designed mechanical and electrical parts over the course of a month while interning at Formlabs and built it during the Formlabs 3 day hackathon!

Spark generator design (Run off a 12s lipo): https://oshwlab.com/ehdesignlabs/wire-edm
CAD for machine: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1HZWo7TJgOH0MMVfZPQ2w7XRhgsk0BfE6?usp=sharing

Note: I added a solid wire contactor on the bottom which made all the difference, make sure you don’t run current through any ball bearings!
