        <title>Tangleball gets another RepRap</title>
        <description> Yesterday during the Tangleball makerday that we regularly have, Vik Olliver dropped off the &quot;Grandad&quot;dy of all RepRaps.

It has seen better days, and i&#039;m honoured to have it at the maker space, and get it back into operation again.

The whole thing is twisted, doesn&#039;t have an extruder, or nozzle, no controller, and has missing parts.

It does have a heater barrel, stepper drivers for all axes, and an Arduino 328 that requires programming with TeaCup firmware.

Thought i&#039;d share in this historical moment :)

By the way, that RepRap on the left is my baby.</description>

From now on, when <a href="http://Tangleball.org.nz" target="_blank"  rel="nofollow">Tangleball</a> here in Auckland, New Zealand has a Maker day, or hosts a Software Freedom Day, we can show how the open source project has evolved, in a very short time span.<br />

But the old man needs a new ticker and pen to draw new things that he'd never would have seen otherwise.<br />

Okay, too many metaphors, but you get the gist.]]></description>
