Hi,
I am programing a picaxe to controle the heater, It also output a pwm signal to bring that into Mach3 via the index input for the spindle speed.
The picaxe is very cheap and haze analog inputs for the sensor, then it has to be programmed to switch a realay or triac to control the heater. On the other hand giving a pulsout to the computer for mach3.
I hope that will work to give a temperatur

Hey Michael
I am reading trough this tread and find that you are using the picaxe to contrile the heat of the nozzel, would you mind sending me the basic dode for that?
I woul be obliged,

Hi,
I am new to this forum, I read every massage in this tread and am very interested in the outcome of this tread, but find it ending at 10 November 2008.
Is it just stopped or carried on in another tread?

freds,
Thank you for the very informative reply.
For the mechanical part of the answer (points 1 to 3) all is well on my cnc machine,
The electronics and the software are now hunting me.
I almost have the tread in how it all works,
If I have it correct, then I need the Sanguino board to be plugged in in the reprap motherboard. Then I need the dc motor controller board and the pwm board. Is this

Sorry,
I forgot to introduce myselve.
I am living in Ghent Belgium.
CNC is a passion and I have build a CNC router therefore, most building material is in MDF. IT has a cutting area of about 375 X 475mm. It can cut aluminum with ease. The cutting motor is from Elte. Now I would like to make 3D printer on the same frame. It will not be a reprap because of lac of space to place it.
Thanks all.

Dear Reprap-eres,
I made a CNC router before I found the reprap. Now I would like to print parts with that CNC router. Is this already tried by somebody?
I use Mach3, Mach3 is putting out Gcode to a driver board (from Hobbycnc) that controls 3 (xyz) stepper motors.
I use a 4 stepper driver board, thus leaving 1 driver for the extruder.
Can this be done?

Dear Cris,
Thank you for your trying to help, but I still did not found the 3d stl files in that link that you have send me. There are allot dxf files, I can, open the DXF files and they would be OK for making the G code. the only thing that is missing on the drawings is the thickness of the parts.
I downloaded the file from the link that you have supplied.
Besides, there are allot of parts miss

Dear all,
I am Willy from Ghent Belgium and am admiring the RIPRAP for its philosophy and simplicity.
Now I want to start with making one, but I do not find the stl files in the below zip file: reprap-mcwire-cartesian-bot-1.2.1.zip.
I have already build a normal CNC machine (Fixed table) in MDF with XYZ and A axis. I would like to cut the necessary parts for the reprap on that.
Could You plea
