    • not needed for the moment, but for next machines we should use it
    • check prices
    • cnc.inshop.cz
  • sklo 2mm 20x20 - vicekrat
    • phokz will check prices and availability at local glazier shop Valsuba Revnice and will buy 10 pcs if price < 20CZK
    • phokz: price is 59CZK/piece (material, cutting and grinding glass edges), time to delivery is about 3 days
    • phokz have ordered 10 pcs, but others please check availability and prices at your local shop

  • hnaci sroub
    • hobbed nut - we will get one from pepa prusa
  • termistory
    • one is in delayed order from XYZ
    • phokz was in GME yesterday and bought some 5kOhm thermistors, but they should be 100kOhm
    • raprep preferred thermistor is EPCOS B57550G104J, which is 100kOhm NTC
  • material na printeni
  • vyriznout dreveny podpory pod heatbed
    • give me(phokz) a link to current template, I'll cut it from MDF (plovouci podlaha)
  • kvalitni ATX zdroj OCZ (dobry konektory, utahne vic tiskaren)
  • √ elmariofredo pruziny

notes with prusa

  • vizualni navod

  • remenicky zajistit navrtane

  • klinovy remen s lepsim profilem pro kvalitnejsi zmenu smeru pohybu

  • upinani remenu

  • firmware pocitadlo podle typu procesoru

  • firmware sprinter - nejlepe branch experimental (na githubu)

software chain

building in progress

printed parts gotchas

couplings

some parts are different from official "stable" version, eg couplings are made by @nophead, who is creator of alternative mendel version to prusa mendel

pulleys

we mounted steel pulleys in wrong direction.. next time if we won't use steel pulleys, we can print em

results from little meetup 12/11/1

  • vycistit sroub

  • rozchodit skeinforge == slicer (kvbik)

    • zpomalit?
  • zvysit teplotu heatbed

    • test vyparit kapku vody
    • zvysit napeti? (jejda - mame 10V viz prechodove odpory)
    • teplovodna pasta mezi sklo a desku
  • zmerit teplotu hotendu

    • teplovodna pasta (lisak)
  • vytvorit penovou desku na izolaci (lisak)

  • zmerit odpor termistoru

  • prechodove odpory na konektorech zdroje

    • 10A draty 2mm^2
    • aby z nej slo opravdu 12V

outputs

  • pocitacovy zdroj uz asi nzdrojuje..

  • zmeril jsem odpory pri pokojove teplote

20.9 Cel - pokoj
110 kOhm - hotend (zeleny kabliky)
113 kOhm - heatbed (modry kabliky)

visit in reprap emergency 12/11/09

@josefprusa visit by @kvbik & @JerryFox

  • mame novy pocitacovy zdroj a s nim je napajeni bez problemu - 12V (Corsair CX500)

  • pepa nevidel, co je v nasem hotendu za problem, ale potvrdil, ze jde ztuha mrkne nam na to a kdyz nebude vedet, co s tim (a ani @arcol mu neporadi) tak nam da jeho novy hotend (prusa nozzle)

  • heatbed snad hreje dost, ale misto obycejne kancelarske pasky ;)) tam mame dat PET pasku -> jemne se zdrsni a potre ABS rozpustenem v acetonu, coz kdyz se udela dostatecne, staci cca jednou po deseti tiscich - jde o to, aby se na desce zachytily kousky rozpusteneho ABS a tisteny model se tam lepe chytal - alternativa je nepouzivat PET pasku a ABS v acetonu natirat primo na sklo - ale pred kazdym tiskem

  • na slicovani pouzivat http://slic3r.org/ - oproti skeinforge je novejsi, rychleji vyvijeny a autor je porad na IRCu (akorat je to v perlu.. :))

  • sprinter (aka firmware do arduina) pouzivame my i @josefprusa z experimental branche

  • pry se nam dost hreje kabel, kterym napajime heatbed
