To build the rotors we used a 3D printer. We used the plans of the project Enigma RDE. Here is the link to their site:

3D Prints

To build the rotors we used a 3D printer.

You'll have the stl files on the site of Enigma RDE (link ahead).

But we only used half of it;

we printed the following components:

- half of the Basisplatte

- Kapitel Wippe

- Kapitel Achsen

- Kapitel Eintrittswalze

- Kapitel Umkerwalze

- Kapitel Rotorspindel

- Kapitel Rotoren

(The other ones are no use to our project.)

Beware !

Ordering components and materials isn't that easy. Some of the suggested suppliers may not deliver to your country.

We recommend you to search for other suppliers that could be cheaper and closer to you.

We do not use the same kind of keyboard as Enigma RDE: we use a computer keyboard. Thus, we cannot use the movement of the keyboard keys to make the rotors turn. We replaced it with a step-motor which is commanded by the Raspberrypi. TODO infos moteur + switch

In order to convey the movement of the motor to the rotors, we had to create a new basis:
