Re: 8-Bit CPU - 8 years ago
Thanks for the info. I'll definitely be sticking with my Mega2560 then. I'll update on how it goes once I get it working. Thanks again!by aaroncm - Delta Machines
Re: 8-Bit CPU - 8 years ago
Thanks for the reply I'd love one of those Duet boards but it'll be a loooong time before I can afford one. Do you know of any other boards or clones that are a little cheaper? Do you think it's at all possible to get an > 8-Bit controller for around $50AUD? Thanks!by aaroncm - Delta Machines
8-Bit CPU - 8 years ago
Hi guys, So I'm building my own Delta from scratch. It's coming along really well, I've spent a fair chunk of money on extrusion, power supply, bearings, motors, etc. At the moment I can't afford a Smoothie board or any ARM based controllers, they seem really hard to find in Australia. I was wondering how bad an Atmega (Arduino) controller is? I have a spare Sainsmart controller ( Basically aby aaroncm - Delta Machines
Rostock Design - 8 years ago
Hey guys, I've built and designed a few printers in the past but I want to try and build a Rostock for a change. Can the frame be as wide as I want, or do I need to stick to certain measurements? Because the rods you can buy that attach the extruder to the rails only come in standard lengths right? This is my biggest question. For example my other printer which is made from 20x20 extrusion wasby aaroncm - General

Are the rails just rectangular? How did you mount the rail to the z/x carriage? Custom designed parts? I want a linear rail now.by aaroncm - Reprappers

Thanks! Yeah I'll buy a couple of those too I think. It's an annoying problem.by aaroncm - Reprappers

Hey BME I've been watching your videos for a long time. Really nice work. I have a question though, I saw your image here: See how you have ripple (I'm not sure what to call it) on the sides of the holes? Have you had any luck in reducing it or know the cause? Is it vibration on Y? I'm having the same problem... Hmmmmm.by aaroncm - Reprappers
