Hey Chris, Thank you very much! My zip code is 55416 (USA). I am going to first check with Bits From Bytes to see what Ian says. I suspect he'll reply by Monday sometime. ~Andyby Andromodon - Wanted
Hello. I am in the need of a Y-motor coupling. It seems my kit is missing one. Can you print one out for me? How much would it cost? Thank you.by Andromodon - Wanted
Thanks. Lest anyone think otherwise, the question and problem in the first message still stands. Any thoughts?by Andromodon - RepRap Host
Does anyone know the legal implications of copying/faxing objects? Would we have to do look to see if there is a patent number engraved somewhere on the object first? Is there such a thing as copyright for physical objects? I'm not a copyright hardliner, but it would be nice if what we RepRappers support publicly is legally clear.by Andromodon - 3D Scanners, Book Scanners, and Optics
That laser scanner is freaking awesome!!! After I finish this whole RepRap thing, that's totally my next project.by Andromodon - 3D Scanners, Book Scanners, and Optics

I thought I should post this info too. They're my settings in my RepRap preferences: There's a lot of them. I think most of them are defaults except Port, Extruder0_Beta=4066, and Extruder0_Rz=333960. Here is the rest, incase I missed something: Reprap properties #Sun Jun 08 19:57:52 CDT 2008 WorldName=RepRap-World CommsDebug=false Extruder0_ColourR(0..1)=0.3 Extruder0_XYSpeed(0..255)=230by Andromodon - RepRap Host
Hello. I have a problem. It created a little smoke last weekend and burnt up my nichrome wire (it was 8 ohms, now it's 32 ohms), also melting my high-temperature JB weld in the process, but that's another story. The Extruder Excerciser program in reprap-host doesn't seem to give the right temperature. When the thermistor is in 28 C ambient, it reads 19 C. When the thermistor is in boiling waby Andromodon - RepRap Host
Hello. I am building a RepRap, and have run into a few stumbling blocks along the way. What is the best way I can offer feedback about the assembly instructions to help improve them? Is there a way I can edit them myself or is it best if I contact a editor? I would post my suggestions here, but I have quite a few of them (read: > 3 pages), and I'm not sure if the right person(s) will see tby Andromodon - General

Hi! I have gone through the steps at , and have gotten to the part that says: "Now you can run the RepRap software. As you, not the superuser, open Eclipse, open the RepRap project, go to src -> org.reprap and right-mouse-click on Main.java. Select Run as -> Java application." When I run it, an empty window pops up that is supposed to hold the RepRap window, and I get the following messaby Andromodon - RepRap Host
Great! You guys are like psychics! Once again you were smack-on. My permissions were over-restrictive. Again, I think this is something that should be mentioned in the wiki. When almost everything else is copy and paste, it gets confusing when we have to start thinking by ourselves. I've started eclipse, and it now builds with 0 errors. Whoohoo! I assume I don't have to worry about the 1by Andromodon - RepRap Host
LOL, recee.arnott! You're right smack on. My j3d-org-java3d-all.jar is an HTML file. LAME! If there is a link referring to a 'bla.jar', and saving it gives you a file called 'bla.jar', the dang file should be a jar file! I cry foul! That should be fixed in the wiki instructions. Just a "(must click. save-as doesn't work)" should suffice. Thanks for your help, recee! Unfortunately, I sby Andromodon - RepRap Host
That would be really cool. One annoying thing is that Sketchup isn't currently available for Linux. That might change in the next year or so (hopefully...).by Andromodon - RepRap Host
How, exactaly, do I do that? I thought that every .jar file in /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.06/jre/lib/ext was in the build path. j3d-org-java3d-all.jar is in that directory. Thanks for your help, but specifics would be of great use to me at this point.by Andromodon - RepRap Host
Fantastic! That was precisely my problem. Eclipse was using java-sun-1.5, which doesn't have all of the 3d libraries installed in it. That seems kind of silly, though, for eclipse to have its own java selector. That's what update-alternatives is for! Am I missing something? BTW, I changed it to java-6-sun, which is where I have all of the 3d libraries. Anyway, that change cut down my numbby Andromodon - RepRap Host
