How to adapt their toolheads etc to our cnc system
Option A: Wire Joining
- Hard join the wires from the toolhead to the d3d device
Option B: Adapter Plate
- Make an adapter pcb, either that mounts on the toolhead, or build it into the main pcb
- Allows for a more professional look, less wires in the way, and cables can be removed easily via the ports/outlets
How to Fork Their Software from Smoothieware to OSE Marlin
- Not 100% neccisary, but means the same controller boards etc can be used
- This will involve code work, so it may take some time
- Could also be done later, use smoothieware for v0.1, then add in OSE marlin in a later build version
