Several tools are available now (TinkerCad, Openscad, etc.) But yesterday, after reading this good piece on boingboing I was curious about the game from which the screenshots are taken. It's an interesting concept/project, but the thing that I'm the most curious of is the software he made and use to model his game : And now I'm wondering if we can manage to use it like our other 3Dmodelers (aby Emmanuel - 3D Design tools

I just seen this short vid that explain EBM http://blog.netfabb.com/index.php?bid=36 it help me to grasp the concept... thus I share it here, even if it's based on a commercial machine it may inspire something (or to add on the wiki)by Emmanuel - MetalicaRap
A friend and I had thought to make a sort of "family tree" showing the development and variation of the reprap project (and it's inspired cousins). The goal : is to have a nice graphic and to print some sexy poster of it, maybe by pre-ordering a batch with the help of a kickstarter'like and then share it with the world. Our deadline : mid-June (cause it will be cool to display it for the openingby Emmanuel - General
Hmm the tip is part of the thread in my case, so it's a thing I didn't have to worry about ^^' It was on a classic wade for a mendel, and was running since november (sufficiently to print a mendel, a prusa and plenty other things). Now I will either re-glue the thread into the PTFE or just buy a new hot-end and switch for an Adrian extruder for the mounting support.by Emmanuel - Huxley

if you delete any present stl, and then press "convert to Gcode" it will clear the Gcodeby Emmanuel - RepSnapper
Hi ! During a workshop the last week we had translated the documentation of the Prusa in french I didn't knew where to add it... and so created a new page and edited some othersby Emmanuel - RepRap Groupe d'Utilisateurs Francophone
Pretty cool ! Beside, I've a question, about the wikipage of the prusa. We are translating all the assemby section in french and I'm wondering how can we add that to the wiki. It seem to only exist the translated-page of the presentation of the reprap atm (http://reprap.org/wiki/RepRapWiki:Translations)... and so did we make a new page with the same "-_-in-french" at the end, or a copy or whateby Emmanuel - General
(For the problem of motor I had, I indeed just reversed the molex connector and its ok now ) For the orders delay, Camiel had updated the main page of mendel-parts some days ago (as you probably seen)by Emmanuel - General
With all the work they had maybe it depends of the complexity of the order (I received my #487 recently but it was just some crimps and cables)by Emmanuel - General
Hi there, I successfully finish my mendel this week (yay^^) another photostream With a lucky gen6 board (the 12/50 to be exact), which is wonderful and worth to wait some weeks (especially since I knew almost nothing about arduino/programming). I'm just wondering about three things : -The led "debug" is always on, I don't know if it's a good thing or if that mean I have to debug something -The sby Emmanuel - General
