"Memory lack in waveform reading!"
Log from Driverless Rigol DS1054Z screen capture over LAN
Trying to extract the full 24 million points memory buffer in one request will display on the oscilloscope screen the error message "Memory lack in waveform reading!", and the data transfer will be interrupted. With byte instead of ASCII mode, a bigger...

Too much for 8mm rails...
Log from Printrbot 'SuperSize Me" Mod
My suspicion that there was too much bed weight was confirmed when I did the initial assembly. The 8mm rails did bow too much for use as-is. In fact they bowed so much there was a bed height difference of almost 15 mm from edge to center. Not usable...So,...

RPi Zero breakout board
Log from Direct UV Printer for Alternative Photography
The printers brain will be a Raspberry Pi Zero computer, with a servant Arduino in the printer head itself to provide flexible monitoring and control functions on the fly. Initial calibration and static settings will be set at system startup (using MCP23017...

A redesign of the X and Z axis gantry
Log from Sienci Mill One: Simplifying Desktop CNC Milling
March 24, 2016I've been working on improving stiffness in all of the axis. Here's a 3D render of the X and Z axis assembly. I found that the biggest issue with the previous iteration was that it was difficult to reach the fasteners, so it was a bit tricky...

Testing the new motors
Log from Tarocco
I borrowed a Prusa i3 from a friend. I wanted to show the performance of the 30W motors I got, so I made a NEMA17 adapter from a piece of acrilyc and replaced the X axis stepper with my servomotor.But it has 3 times the mechanical output power!I used...

Week 4: 1/24/2017
Log from 2017: A Year of Hacking
Abother day, another 3D printed bottle opener. Today was to see if printing directly from the SD card eliminated the freezes in the prints I have been experiencing the last two days when running the code from my laptop. First, the SD card reader on my...

Wheels
Log from Blinky, the Companion Robot
In my previous projects, I purchased metal brackets to mount the motors. I considered designing my own bracket for 3d printing, but I usually search thingiverse.com first and I found a great bracket here:Print two of these brackets.Mount the motors to...

Structure post processing
Log from Affordable bionic prosthesis
After finishing the 3D printing process, the next step was gluing the two body halves together. The design incorporates four channels to place four threaded rods at the joint to strengthen the structure. Had to remove A LOT of support structures. After...

Z-axis and Mono-filament Drive
Log from TOME - Portable 3D Printer
Tonight I was able to take a break from unpacking to start designing the Z-axis carriages and Mono-Filament drive. Corey and I decided to go with this style drive as belts/pulleys would have been too bulky to fit effectively, neither of us are impressed...

Deciphering The FDM Code
Log from Mechanized Prosthetic Foot
To fabricate the model to the level of detail needed the group chose to use rapid prototyping. Using rapid prototyping allowed for us to make quick revisions and produce parts on a much cheaper scale than other forms of prototype manufacturing. Understanding...

I'm trying to actually document a procjet!
Log from Mr Pancake
Alright planning sucks....Disclaimer: I never plan more than I have to and I tend to leave all planning to the last minute possible(proper hacker attitude isn't it?).The thought of a pancake printer has been in the back of my head for ages, square pancakes...

Headphone driver card
Log from Multichannel Audio DSP Field Mixer Recorder
So after the success of the PreAmp card , I was thinking , great , easy !!! never think that :)I soldered the componants onto the card, channel one working , nothing on channel 2.I checked the gerber files as there seamed to be no trace from pins 3 &...

[T] Threads and feedback
Log from Coaxial8or [gd0144]
So, learning that PCBWay isn't going to notice a possible manufacturing issue until they actually try to manufactor it, I was more involved this time. For starters, if I self tap the 3D printed holes, the print is only $39.80. Considering...

Mato Go Home
Log from Little Friend
This is the first phase of the "get home and recharge" project. By providing an illuminated, shielded homing light, Mato can take a "straight on" approach and come to the point light source.I started by 3d printing a homing beacon (3d part and design...

Reworking the Frame
Log from Combo CNC/3D Printer Build
The time is ripe for another frame change! After making some test cuts, I made some observations, notably:- I was a serious amount of walkout due to the dremel I am using. This will be solved my using a legit metal mount and a more powerful tool (the...
