Building the external alarm buzzer stand

Encasing our buzzer in a custom stand enhances our IoT alarm dashboard. In this section, we will build the stand. We will start by identifying the parts that make up our custom buzzer stand before we assemble it.

Identifying the parts

The parts that make up the custom buzzer stand can be made with either a 3D printer or a 3D printing service such as Shapeways (https://www.shapeways.com).

These parts are shown in Figure 8.11:

• A: This is a 3D-printed version of the Stand.stl file, which is located in the Build Files/Buzzer Stand folder of this chapter’s GitHub repository. This version of the file was 3D printed using a liquid resin 3D printer and was subsequently painted. For those of us who prefer to use an FDM printer, the split stand located under Build Files/Split Stand would be a better option:
