Task 6 Work plan for getting CNC Circuit Mill Spindle working on TAZ:

Log:

1. Document final BOM including spindle motor, bit holder, bearings.
   1. Embeded Google Spreadsheet for HydraFabber CNC Mill Spindle BOM to OSE Wiki
   2. Added an Edit link at the bottom of the embedded Google Spreadsheet
2. Prepare and avail all the files for the spindle holder. Upload to wiki.
   1. STL file
   2. RAMPS gcode file
3. Let the RepRap IRC know about this, and let Marcin know that we can add printing file and Spindle BOM to a blog post - to encourage others to develop the CNC Circuit Mill in parallel.
4. Print Spindle Holder
5. Secure a 5V power source
6. Take photo and document all spindle parts and when you build it, do a Dozuki build procedure.
7. Build out spindle, connect spindle motor to power, install an on-off switch for mill
8. Source proper milling bits and buy them
9. Prepare a milling bed - 1/4" plywood taped down.
10. Level the milling bed
11. Whenever you have free time, reach to RepRap IRC for code for milling on a RAMPS system, or search web
    1. Document all the examples you find on this - write down links
12. Download CNC mill software and upload to OSE wiki
13. Determine a strategy for uploading CNC Milling code to existing TAZ
    1. Use a different Arduino/RAMPS? Upload new software/firmware
    2. Document your path before making any changes.

Task 3, CNC Circuit Mill Spindle

Log:

Remachined Spindle Assembly Files:

Remachined Spindle Files from Ilan Moyer

Original SolidWorks File:Remachiningspindle.zip Convert to File:Spindle assy.stp

Task 2, CNC Circuit Mill Spindle

Goal

• Mount the existing CNC_Circuit_Mill_Spindle by MIT on to the TAZ's Y Carriage attachment

Log Spindle in FreeCAD

Convert spindle Solidworks files to Sketchup

Drafts of spindle mount:

Files for Spindle Assembly:

• Spindle file from via John Log from Solidworks into STP: File:Spindle assy.stp

Task 1, LulzBot TAZ

Convert Taz FreeCAD files to Sketchup

Incorporated and continueing from Nate Log.

Basic Idea: Incorporate Carriage with X_MillSpindleMount. Spindle mount is removable, so we can also mount the laser diode head.

Goal:

Find relevant TAZ parts. Convert TK0_Assembly.fcstd To Sketchup. Make groups, components and cleanup Taz sketchup file.
