Review Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) tutorial and recording of Tom's presentation

[[1]]

Board etching: Transfer the PWM Modular Control for light dimmer (welder in development) sketch Tom developed to plate

First solution way too strong and permanent marker too dry: 2 parts Hydrocloric acid HCl31% (purchased as muriatic acid): 1 part Hydrogen Peroxide H2O23%

Second round new black permanent marker, correct solution 1 HCl : 2 H2O2

Tues Jan 28, 2020

From starting documentation, review ATMEGA328 to Arduino uno (led to pin 13)

Add switch

Be sure Rx to Tx, receive to transmit. This is not yet wired properly RX to TX and missing BREAK AT BACK OF CHIP!!!

This board blinks and shows the reset hack but may or may not be essential

todays excercises 1 File:Plotterpen.fcstd

Print plotter pen and clamp from existing .stl, download and open in cura [[2]]

[[3]]

[[4]]

In CURA review basic and advanced settings see... Check advanced settings for 1.2 nozzle, update profile if necessary

Steps per mm at 100

Layer check/ missing/ change thickness to 1.0 top, check'expert config' settinga no check on spiral contour bottom and top if already set to 1 in Basic and missing

Filament size using 2.85

Check machine settings bed size (does not update with profile update)

save /export Gcode to SD card

note: .stl is the geometry of object, the Gcode depends on the above settings for the printer to read and print

2 Using Inkscape to Generate Gcode

from Image Started with .png, save as .svg, at top bar path/ trace bitmap under multiple scans: creates a group, select colors, smooth, and stack scans was set to 8, could likely reduce to 2, select ok then move one off.

There will be multiple additional copies to delete

export gcode

this is the link to check the Gcode before plotting as above

And here are the files including the un-plotted Gcode file for the OSE sticker (no added lines to 90 for alignment)

File:OESd4dStickpath4.zip

January 26

Wires connected recorded movie... need easy edit app. Free Cad draw tweezers and print Adjust alignment on extruder and to Z axis

From /OSE Microfactory download D3D Universal 8.ini Update profile for CURA for: nozzle size 1.2 retraction

[[6]]

Great prints: add links

refine free cad skills!!

January 25

Build the Printer!
