The software should work in Win32 but you have to have the .Net framework installed. I think I made it under the 4.0 framework which can be downloaded here:
If you already tried that then let me know and I can find a 32-bit box and see what happens on my end. Might take a couple days though. Also feel free to PM a gcode file over to me and I can quickly process it so that you can see if it

This file should work for you. slic3r added comments to the gcode using the semicolon character that the code was not expecting. I have modified the code to ignore the comments. I also fixed the error where the code expected the filename to end with "_export".
I noticed that woodsmoke's Lash Maze print consists only of vertical and horizontal lines. Both the skeinforge backlash compensation

Thanks for giving the tool a test run. The error you saw said "Input string not in correct format." I'm curious what the input string looked like; can you send me the gcode file you were working with?

Thanks for the feedback, Traumflug. I was not able to eliminate backlash in my setup but I will continue to work on it!
At speeds above zero, backlash compensation will cause a speed loss for each direction change. However, it does not take much time to move a small amount. On my setup, I run a feedrate of 45 mm/s with backlash compensation at 0.30 mm. That's 0.0067 seconds per direction cha

On my reprap I have been unable to mechanically eliminate backlash. I tried compensating for backlash using the lash plugin in skeinforge but my results did not come out right. After looking at the generated gcode, I discovered the lash plugin does not use the best method for compensating for backlash. Whenever there is a direction reversal, the lash plugin looks at the next destination point

I found a local shop that can machine extruder nozzles but they want to charge $80 for the first nozzle. If I buy just one nozzle it will not be worth it, but they will lower the price per nozzle if I buy more than one. I will be happy to sell the extra nozzles to the reprap community but I want it to be affordable for everyone.
