Building a SplineScanner or BookScanner? Using one, made it better? Your RepRap is a scanner? You just use a (video)camera to scan things? You make your own telescopes? Talk about it here.
Re: troubleshooting - 14 years ago
your end stops are connected? If not try connecting them and try again. When I built mine I had the same problem, but then connected the endstops and it started working. Royby roygpa - General
Re: The Sweet Sound of Printing - 14 years ago
My Sanguinololu board causes the motors to hum too. Depending on the part, it sometimes sounds like a song. Maybe it's just me. Royby roygpa - General

Yes I think you would only have to change it in the configuration.h file and thee are instructions there on how to do it.by roygpa - General
Re: Problem with z-axis motor and Extruder Motor - 14 years ago
have you plugged in your endstops? From what I have found is that the Sanguinololu board needs the endstops connected in order to work, Or you have to turn them off in Sprinter. Royby roygpa - General

Pronterface- Center part on print bed? - 14 years ago
I am at the testing phase with my Prusa and pretty much calibrating and printing "air parts." When I use pronterface "printer interface" it seem to always position the part on the right rear quadrant of the print bed. Is there a way to tell the program to center the part on the bed? Thank you in advance. Royby roygpa - RepRap Host

I've purchased 5 stepper motors and the Budaschnozzle 1.0 with a .5 mm and 0.35 nozzles and the PTFE tubes for both 3.00 and 1.75 mm extrusion and I am very satisfied. Royby roygpa - General

Or maybe it was right there on Openscad.org under "Download Development Snapshots." Yep, that was it, and I just didn't see it. DOH! Royby roygpa - General

Re: 3d noob with an OpenScad question - 14 years ago
OK so my question was either really, really stupid, I came across as a jerk or or nobody has access to the newer compiled version of Openscad. I hope it was the latter. didn't meant to sound like a jerk. Am I right in assuming that somebody will compile it and offer it up on the internet sooner or later? I am learning a lot here by reading other threads and the search function is very useful tby roygpa - General
3d noob with an OpenScad question - 14 years ago
HI, I am just getting started with 3D printing and in the early stages of building a Prusa Mendel. I have the frame together and my stepper motors just arrived yesterday. While I wait for my Sanguinololu board to arrive in the US from from the Netherlands, I thought I would spend time on installing and getting to "know" the software. I have installed Reprap Host, Replicator, Repsnapper, Skeinforgby roygpa - General
