Nice! Let's get this reviewed by RepRap IRC channel feedback.

June 22: Task 10, CNC Circuit Mill Spindle

Carriage with X_Carriage_QuickGuide and X_SingleExtruderMountOffset
Basic Idea: Carriage with X_MillSpindleMount. If we remove spindle mount, we can also mount the laser diode head.

Goal

Log

  • Clarify goal and task details
  • Write email to creator of spindle asking for missing drawings/CAD files
  • Find relevant TAZ parts from [1]
  • Basic idea:
    • Remove X_Carriage_QuickGuide and X_SingleExtruderMountOffset
    • Add new part X_MillSpindleMount and attach it to X_Carriage
  • Install FreeCAD
  • Tried unsuccessfully to add this to TK0_Assembly.fcstd (how to add new parts to an assembly file?)
  • FreeCAD undo bug: http://opensourceecology.org/wiki/FreeCAD#Temp (or am I doing something wrong?)
  • I stop here and hand over to John

Files

Next steps, open questions

  • Find correct dimensions of spindle
  • Draw nice CAD part that makes sense mechanically and that looks printable
    • How to fix the spindle in z-axis?
  • Add holes and match to TAZ
