I welded the the bits where the top bars connect and drilled the holes for the bolts.Looking good.I purchased these Linear Guide Rails from Hong Kong. There were cheaper ones from china however their shipping date was estimated for 2 months.The next...

The first controller had some issues which I addressed in this hardware revision. The footprint of the logic level shifter (U5) was fixed.Added an RGB status LED.Added a reset button.Added a mode button to select the Wi-Fi mode. Changed the right...
Okay top piece came out great. I added brim to print file and put a ton of hairspray down while heating. This seemed to work. It was struck on the bed of the printer really good. And no Lifting at all. Plus i re-leveled the bed before i started. so i...
Now that i have the screen in hand and can get an idea of exactly where everything goes, it's time to work on the top plate. Had a few prototyping blocks around, so will be using those to access 5V, 35 and ground on the fat block and various to...
I finalized the design for the kinematic laser mounts, and now I am designing the top layers of version 2. Aside from these mounts, there were a few things I wanted to improve: Hide the wires down the side of the deviceHide the bolts for adjusting...

ok , so as I was previously indicating, I will use the second plate I have to make a raised platform. The temporary spacers will be swapped for custom vibration isolators normally used for camera gimbals. This also raises the sensors and gps module...
The new crop has been growing for about 4 weeks now. The photo below shows a view looking down on the system with the plant starter top plate removed. You can see the extensive root systems the plants have developed. I also thought this photo...
I extended emulator by finding of top 5 most frequent instructions - these are results for some RISC-V benchmarks: dhrystone: Five Most Frequent: 1) ADDI = 87830 (27.05%) 2) BEQ = 33399 (10.29%) 3) SW = 33037 (10.17%) 4) LW = 31050 (9.56%) 5) LBU = 27712...
I would have loved to have all auto-feeders, but that would increase the cost significantly. Especially since I don't have a 3d printer (I realize the Ender 3 is under $200 and could do the job, but one thing at a time). So, I found...
To limit the scope of the project, 3 of the most interesting possible options have been chosen. ---------- more ----------I am ranking them in complexity like this (low to high): "Rocket" ... to make the underlaying interaction only 4 leds and 4 buttons...
Let me start this by saying: I’m not an expert on anything I’m about to talk about. But I do think it’s worth having an in-depth look at how I got this device to work and how the Gray Encoder works. When I first sat down to design the Task Tracker. I...
I bought a £29.99 glass table just for the glass although it had 4 of these metal adaptors glued in place. It was the correct size for the table project and it was tempered and bevelled glass (thought it'd be worth the risk). After a bit of research...
The robots are in a mostly functioning state with respect to their hardware, we will discuss the up and coming 4th version of the robots soon. This post is about what software we are going to produce and how it will enable people to do some very cool...
