  • RelayRepRap

  • I've been interested in self-replicating machines since I first read about the idea many years ago.Often when people talk about the idea of a self-replicating machine what they have in mind is a system that can be programmed to construct other machines,...
  • Moar broke bits

  • Well, I redesigned the controller board so there is no need for any jumpers, and then I etched it out. It took 3 bits to finally get it done, and with the bit replacing it moved like .05mm to the left, and the drill points were a bit off and I said fuck...
  • PAR Sensor Circuit

  • I haven’t yet gone over the design of the circuit for the profiler yet but hope to get to it in a few days. Generally, it’ll be based around and Arduino Uno with a custom shield that will contain components to drive the LEDs, amplify the signal from...
  • Controller Board fixes and v0.2

  • Over the past weeks I have been working with the board mentioned in the previous log. Unfortunately it didn't work 100% correctly (as expected with my talent). First there was the minor problem of the VCC rail directly shorted to ground. As you can see...
  • Round 2, Fight!

  • (October 2015)With new PCBs in hand, I assembled two to get going on testing. I still need to get the IR working, and the value of the phototransistor pullups still needs to be determined. I also ordered stencils for this version of the PCB from OSHstencils,...
  • 1.21 gigawatts

  • The new brackets are printed and work fine for keeping the board centered in the frame. I failed to mention in the last post that one of the reasons I made the brackets was that the assembly got damaged, and all the connections between the boards saw...
  • Do it yourself from A to Z.

  • Up to this day to make a circuit board for a prototype one had to pore over it with a soldering iron or to order a short production run. However, many of us can make it using a conventional iron and a laser printer. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GjXhPRYOMzg...
  • Actually Building Some Stuff

  • I actually got the parts a few days ago, but I had to wait to fully assemble the thing because of an unexpected problem.I eagerly poured the bags out on my desk...but when I got to the opamps and voltage regulators...I discovered a slight discrepancy...
  • Ugly SMD Adapters

  • I know you could argue that this construction method is closer to the "Manhattan" style, but these adapter boards sure aren't pretty! In any case, I've found that it works pretty well. The artwork I used for my original batch of home-etched adapters...
  • Castellated Edges

  • I haven't been good about updating this project, but I've been using these adapters very successfully. Most recently, I've started adding castellated edges for soldering to the ground plane. Here's a look at some under the 10x inspection microscope:...
  • PCB - Revision I

  • This was my first custom PCB design, apart from a single sided milled PCB that I had to create for an assignment. Because most of the suppliers in Europe are really expensive, I chose OSH Park. They only charge 5$ per square inch, which is especially...
