Looks like the RepRap store is closed now, but I have the build details and STL files etc and am wondering<br />about things like the heated bed etc? Can you get plans for this, or is there a supplier anywhere? There seems to be<br />a bewildering array of offerings but I prefer the DIY approach!<br /><br />Regards<br /><br />Chris Parsons]]></description> <dc:creator>cparsons</dc:creator> <category>Devon RepRap User Group</category> <pubDate>Fri, 02 Sep 2016 06:22:39 -0400</pubDate> </item> <item> <guid>https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?212,152504,599943#msg-599943</guid> <title>Re: Getting started with Sanguinololu</title> <link>https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?212,152504,599943#msg-599943</link> <description><![CDATA[ Hi all I find all the above post very interesting as I have been using sanguinololu for about 2 years now without any problems on four home made printers and found it great. I have now got a bee in my bonnet about adding a second extruder to my printer, and after a lot of searching I stumbled accross an eagle design for a sanguinololu add on known as "Slum 1.0.1" this is a reasonable simple to construct board plugging onto the sanguinololu expansion pins, and so I thought that I would give it a try, my problem is how to amend the marlin configuration.h and other marlin files to address the expansion pins and therefore the second extruder. Can anyone help or better still has anyone made and used this design who can provide answers to problems they found.]]></description> <dc:creator>papakel</dc:creator> <category>Devon RepRap User Group</category> <pubDate>Wed, 23 Dec 2015 03:18:08 -0500</pubDate> </item> <item> <guid>https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?212,304125,392392#msg-392392</guid> <title>Re: Did anyone buy a kit from Stewart Starbuck?</title> <link>https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?212,304125,392392#msg-392392</link> <description><![CDATA[ Just so this isn't left unanswered, I can confirm I am okay.

There may be someone local who could help as hands-on is much better than at-a-distance! Secondly, do you have a simple meter to check voltages and so on? A cheap digital multimeter from Maplin or similar is pretty much a necessity for any sensible fault-finding (Maplin are listing a "domestic multimeter" for about £9 at the moment that would do everything you are likely to need at this stage). Also, are you using Pronterface to drive the board? Is it showing information coming back from the Sanguinololu when you first connect?<br /><br />Assuming you have access to a meter, the first step could be to start looking around the board and checking that correct voltages appear in the right places. In the first instance, I would check that there is 12V on each Pololu - or even that the 12V supply is delivering that to the board. Really simple checks that can turn up silly faults. However, you also need to be confident that the Gcode is getting to the board, so there are a number of lines of approach.<br /><br />Start with answers to my first few questions, and we can see what we can do.<br /><br />- Brian]]></description> <dc:creator>Nealeb</dc:creator> <category>Devon RepRap User Group</category> <pubDate>Tue, 18 Jun 2013 05:10:18 -0400</pubDate> </item> <item> <guid>https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?212,152504,219218#msg-219218</guid> <title>Re: Getting started with Sanguinololu</title> <link>https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?212,152504,219218#msg-219218</link> <description><![CDATA[ I know this is a long dead thread on the forum, but I believe my issue directly relates to your large original response to Charlie.<br /><br />I am running the Sanguinololu and got over the hurdle of getting firmware onto the board. As of right now, I cannot move X,Y,Z or the E motor. You mentioned needing the 12v power hookup to make them move, which I understand. I have the power plugged in as well as the USB (of course, otherwise it would never connect to Pronterface)<br /><br />I figure I have a problem with the board (bought it as part of the Eventorbot kit), or the wire terminals, or the wires themselves, or my solder points, or the wire order (which I was told to modify as part of the installation of everything as it came as a DIY kit). I doubt it is a problem with every motor, wire, solder point though, as it is an issue that stops them all from working.<br /><br />Which makes me come back to the board or the way the board distributes power to the motors. I have Sangunololu v1.3<br /><br />Again, sorry to revive a long dead thread :/]]></description> <dc:creator>Kenneth.P</dc:creator> <category>Devon RepRap User Group</category> <pubDate>Mon, 17 Jun 2013 18:02:51 -0400</pubDate> </item> <item> <guid>https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?212,207825,207825#msg-207825</guid> <title>Wakey Wakey</title> <link>https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?212,207825,207825#msg-207825</link> <description><![CDATA[ I know you are out there somewhere lol, probably busy on your projects just a update really about 85% on parts gathered for my i3 build so hopefully ill have loads of pics soon anyways what have you lot been upto?]]></description> <dc:creator>chris33</dc:creator> <category>Devon RepRap User Group</category> <pubDate>Sun, 12 May 2013 08:18:08 -0400</pubDate> </item> <item> <guid>https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?212,164628,196847#msg-196847</guid> <title>Re: Workshops</title> <link>https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?212,164628,196847#msg-196847</link> <description><![CDATA[ Hey abdulla, I've sent you a PM.<br /><br />As for this thread, workshop doors are open most days for anyone interested!]]></description> <dc:creator>stewartstarbuck</dc:creator> <category>Devon RepRap User Group</category> <pubDate>Tue, 02 Apr 2013 08:57:33 -0400</pubDate> </item> <item> <guid>https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?212,161132,196329#msg-196329</guid> <title>Re: HI im chris and live in plymouth</title> <link>https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?212,161132,196329#msg-196329</link> <description><![CDATA[ Abdulla I have emailed you]]></description> <dc:creator>chris33</dc:creator> <category>Devon RepRap User Group</category> <pubDate>Sun, 31 Mar 2013 05:14:30 -0400</pubDate> </item> <item> <guid>https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?212,164628,194525#msg-194525</guid> <title>Re: Workshops</title> <link>https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?212,164628,194525#msg-194525</link> <description><![CDATA[ Hi stewartstarbuck ,<br /><br />I have a printer and I got problem with fix it, so can I ask if you can fix it to me??<br />you can send me an email so it will be easy to chat togather <br /><a href="mailto:abdll1@hotmail.com">abdll1@hotmail.com</a><br /><br />Regards,<br />Abdulla]]></description> <dc:creator>abdulla</dc:creator> <category>Devon RepRap User Group</category> <pubDate>Sun, 24 Mar 2013 14:21:48 -0400</pubDate> </item> <item> <guid>https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?212,161132,194441#msg-194441</guid> <title>Re: HI im chris and live in plymouth</title> <link>https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?212,161132,194441#msg-194441</link> <description><![CDATA[ Hi, <br />Sorry about that I was busy with my study.<br />we can arengge a meeting if you want this is my email <a href="mailto:abdll1@hotmail.com">abdll1@hotmail.com</a> it will be better for communication and faster.<br /><br />regards,<br />abdulls]]></description> <dc:creator>abdulla</dc:creator> <category>Devon RepRap User Group</category> <pubDate>Sun, 24 Mar 2013 07:47:42 -0400</pubDate> </item> <item> <guid>https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?212,161132,193922#msg-193922</guid> <title>Re: HI im chris and live in plymouth</title> <link>https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?212,161132,193922#msg-193922</link> <description><![CDATA[ What it is im builing a i3 and had tap holes to 4mm but the bed will have 3mm holes]]></description> <dc:creator>chris33</dc:creator> <category>Devon RepRap User Group</category> <pubDate>Fri, 22 Mar 2013 09:55:48 -0400</pubDate> </item> <item> <guid>https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?212,161132,193919#msg-193919</guid> <title>Re: HI im chris and live in plymouth</title> <link>https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?212,161132,193919#msg-193919</link> <description><![CDATA[ Is it possible to make a in total length would be 12mm, diameter 5mm one end 6mm length m4 threaded and the other end m3 tapped hole made out of brass ill price up material, im going ask at work first but very doubt theyll make me four]]></description> <dc:creator>chris33</dc:creator> <category>Devon RepRap User Group</category> <pubDate>Fri, 22 Mar 2013 09:52:39 -0400</pubDate> </item> <item> <guid>https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?212,161132,193123#msg-193123</guid> <title>Re: HI im chris and live in plymouth</title> <link>https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?212,161132,193123#msg-193123</link> <description><![CDATA[ Chris,<br /><br />Yes, lathe in full working order!

These would take place from my workshop in Exeter, most likely on Saturdays.<br /><br />I did host an event a few months ago for the West of England group, and that went pretty well. There was even cake!<br /><br />What are your thoughts on that?]]></description> <dc:creator>stewartstarbuck</dc:creator> <category>Devon RepRap User Group</category> <pubDate>Tue, 06 Nov 2012 10:10:32 -0500</pubDate> </item> </channel></rss> If you would like to create a banner that links to this page (i.e. this validation result), do the following:
