- printed two cages. look pretty good. better than i expected.
- might slim it down so it holds less powder.
- ordered chemicals. might be a few weeks.
nov 18, 2014
made some stl's. guna try to slice.
nov 17, 2014
mostly finished with the scad work. could clean it up a little but its working. getting printer back in shape, maybe next week.
nov 14, 2014
- reworked the scad for the mesh module, i like i better.
- draws a big matrix of cubes, then rotates it, then gets the intersection() with a cube the size of the wall
- guna do a simple lid next thatll silicone onto the top of it
- might use a small 'rope cleat' to tie off wire going into cage

"Object isn't a valid 2-manifold! Modify your design. See http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/OpenSCAD_User_Manual/STL_Import_and_Export"
i tried using the mirror() function to make a mirror image of the mesh. apparently that was a bad idea.

- mirrored sides
- need to add divots for clip in
- need to figure out problem with angles above 45
- need to determine cage height from tub height

fixed a bug and centered holes
nov 3, 2014
been slowly working on an OpenSCAD file for the battery idea. got the holes aligned and angled how i imagined them. im a bit of a noob so i probably did the code in the most difficult way imaginable. User:Dorkmo/Ideas/Battery/SCAD
- need to tweak the height and width of the mesh compared to the wall itself.
- also need to make some divots near the base for it to snap into the base of the tub.
- also a lid.

revisited battery. sketched a single cell idea. would hold the ni and fe powders on either side of a printed grid membrane. not much surface area optimization. would like to test something simple and then go from there. need to check on how much electrolyte needs to be around.

added metal roof sheet to roof panel
sep 12, 2014
updated roof panel with cross members on 24" centers.
sep 10, 2014
did a rough idea for door frame, collecting more input for next revision.

Roof_Layer_1 Roof_Layer_2 on layer 2 i think i may have put the horizontal piece at either end on the top not the bottom side. need the check

trying out the fritzing program for a new ceb controller board project. Andrew's notes for reqs
finding a couple things for board Talk:CEB Press 6 - Controller Module - Bill of Materials
expiramting with an idea for printable rocker switches that will allow for rubber outer seal and can activate buttons mounted on a pcb. would eliminate wiring board to buttons.
also have been looking over bunny's log for help James Slade Log
pictures of assembled board and wiriing

sketched an idea for a more tradition forklift attachment.

general idea for a small earth house
