Please coordinate between Dave Log ,John Log, Leo Log, Tim Log, and Nate Log - all work related to HydraFabber.


Aug 1-2, 2013:

Task 10, Pregress report

Log:

July 26-29, 2013:

Task 9, Current State July 2013 & DPAI Current State July 2013 Matrix

Log:

  1. Worked on Current State July 2013 and DPAI Current State July 2013 Matrix with current DPVs and OSE Staff.
  2. Provided insights as Remote Contributor and DPV to standardize the GVCS build process.

Task 8, Setup 3D Printing System for Linux(Ubuntu 12.04)

Log:

Installed: Ubuntu 12.04, Python 2.7, Cura/Replcatorg/Pronterface/Printrun/Slic3r

Printers were not able to connect to printers. This was fixed using the resources below. RepRap IRC

  1. [13:01] <stager_> how do I connect to either ultimaker or lulzbot taz with ubuntu 12.04#
  2. [13:01] <ScribbleJ> Use Pronterface.#
  3. [13:01] <stager_> I get connection timed out when I try to connect to either printer#
  4. [13:02] <teepee> check if your user is in group dialout#
  5. [13:02] <iXce> are you specifying the right baudrate ?#
  6. [13:02] <iXce> that too#
  7. [13:02] <teepee> right if baudrate is 250000, that might be a bit problematic...#
  8. [13:03] <teepee> 250000?##
  9. [13:03] <kthx> 250000 is problematic on linux, see https://github.com/ErikZalm/Marlin/issues/205 for some details about the problem and is also possible with a patch to pyserial, see https://groups.google.com/d/msg/ultimaker/BNjPpoJpfrE/gGSKAdhY5VwJ#
  10. [13:03] <stager_> yes 250000 baudrate for ultimaker and 112500 for lulzbot taz#

This is the fix by Martin Renold :The Fix Patch

THANKS to Martin Renold

Thanks for pointing this patch out, I've just upgraded my baudrate now.

I think the better way to install is:

  1. svn co http://pyserial.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/pyserial/trunk pyserial #
  2. cd pyserial #
  3. patch -p0 < ../pyserial.patch #
  4. cd pyserial #
  5. cd pyserial #
  6. python setup.py install --user #
  7. python3 setup.py install --user #

So the next distro upgrade won't override your local version.

Task 7 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. Generate exploded part diagram in Sketchup or Solidworks referencing numbered items in BOM spreadsheet
  3. Verify and purchase parts
  4. Prepare and avail all the files for the spindle holder. Upload to wiki.
    1. STL file
    2. RAMPS gcode file
  5. 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.
  6. Print Spindle Holder
  7. Secure a 5V power source
  8. Take photo and document all spindle parts and when you build it, do a Dozuki build procedure.
  9. Build out spindle, connect spindle motor to power, install an on-off switch for mill
  10. Source proper milling bits and buy them
  11. Prepare a milling bed - 1/4" plywood taped down.
  12. Level the milling bed
  13. 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
  14. Download CNC mill software and upload to OSE wiki
  15. 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 2, CNC Circuit Mill Spindle

Goal

Log Spindle in FreeCAD

Convert spindle Solidworks files to Sketchup

Drafts of spindle mount:

June 22, 2013:

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.
