Issue Tracker
- There should be a CNC marking on the rib for the location of the soil block.
- Front mid plate flange - does one have to be trimmed to make the hopper support fit on the ejection side?
- Are table bolt holes narrowed down already?
- Do CNC cut rings work as the shaft support?
- How much effort does it take to straighten heat warping of frame metal?
Roadmap
- Developer ISO
- Open source cylinders. Advisor.
- Open source solenoid valve. Advisor.
- Open Source Gear Pump.
- Robust 3D printing (3D printer dependency)
- Open source electronics design + workflow
- Open source soil mixer
- Lime burning
- FreeCAD construction set
- Scribus build book - on-demand publishing
- Online sales template + fulfillment instrucions for ANYONE - with license terms, attribution, and terms of sale have to be clear. Ie, anyone contributing or using can make money on this. Just spreading a new culture.
- Brick press manufacturing training
- Super-efficient CEB house instructional. Nonseismic plus seismic.
- OBI Design Guide
- 2 stage hydraulic pump for 1/2 power usage
