3D board met Eagle3D

This is a Dutch version of this instructable.

In deze instructable leg ik uit hoe u met behulp van Eagle, Eagle3D en POV-Ray een 3D board maakt.

Step 1 Programmas die u nodig heeft

Eagle

Wow, best leuk om te zien dat er meer nederlanders op instructables zitten! Ik begon al te vrezen dat ik de enige was. :P

Erg cool het werkt! It works! Ok I try to translate it into English: --------------- -STEP 1- You need 3 programs. Eagle itself to make your schematic & board design. Then you need to download/install Eagle3D. This download has 4 directories inside (but 2 important ones): -povray (the directory with the pov-ray libary files, you need that later to generate an 3D design) -ulp (this are files you need to great a pov file from a Eagle board design) --------------- -STEP 2- You need to start your Eagle open your design (*.brd) and select: File->Run... After that you select the 3d41.ulp file if your Eagle is up-to-date *otherwise you need to use 3d40.ulp for older versions*. This file you just download in step 1 (3d41.ulp file is in the ulp directory). Finally you select some settings if you want to and then you got a *.pov file in the working directory (project directory). --------------- -STEP 3- Now... you can generate a 3d image from this *.pov file! Download/install Pov-Ray, I'm using Linux, so the in command-line it will be: sudo povray +i your_project_name.pov library_path=/home/your_username/eagle3d/povray Library_Path=/home/your_username/.PlayOnLinux/fonts -geometry 1920x1080 NOTE: You can see you need to change "your_project_name" to your name you got for your pov file and "your_username" to your username under Linux. You will also notice that I just use the Windows Font Library of PlayOnLinux (WhineHQ could also work or you can just copy/past your /Windows/Fonts map to your Linux partition). --------------- -STEP 4- Eventually if you don't have any errors it will generate a *.PNG file (image file). It will be beautiful :D I add my image to this comment... I hope I helped people who did not understand.. :) Kind regards, Melroy van den Berg

Tenx for working it out. But if you had read the intro carefully. You would have noticed that this is Dutch a translation of a already existing English version. http://www.instructables.com/id/Render-3D-images-of-your-PCBs-using-Eagle3D-and-PO/

[Joe Martin]

Please don't be ignorant, Instructables don't have to be in English.

If you want to know what is about use an online translator! =)

This looks like a job for babel fish.. http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=nl&tl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.instructables.com%2Fid%2F3D-board-met-Eagle3D%2F%3FALLSTEPS

Appears to be a way to make 3D renderings of circuit boards from schematics
