Version 2 was started in 2013 and then put on hold. It's being revived in Oct 2013.
Move to R&D:
As of Oct 2013, we're working on a redesign. See the Research and development link above. is in progress, more information about the control system and other research and development can be found in the Research & Development section. In particular, a big piece of development is a robust, open source Height Controller for oxyacetylene and plasma torches.
The mechanical structure is already built. Steps needed include Steppernug open source stepper motor driver, Arduino stepper controller, z-height control, trigger, endstops, and CNC toolpath toolchain. Further development involves test-driven design with Cool DRV, RAMPS, DRV-based Pololu. Building towards universally scalable stepper controller as we begin Power Electronics Construction Set.
