Well, there are many ways to do things, depending on exactly what type of cuts are required, and how complex it is. For simple stuff I prefer to use jscut, you load an SVG (eg from inkscape), select the areas and the operation types. I will write a tutorial for this soon, and probably do a workshop on it. You can also export gcode directly from inkscape if you have the right plugins, although i found it a bit harder to use than jscut. If what you need is contouring the tool to use is probably pyCAM, thats pretty much all it does, but does it in quite some depth. You would also need some ball-nose end mills, which we dont have any of. The other choice is to use HeeksCAD/HeeksCNC, which is tim clarks favourite, so i will leave him to do a tutorial on that one :) From neil at aurinia.co.uk Mon Feb 2 10:02:34 2015 From: neil at aurinia.co.uk (Neil Jones) Date: Mon, 02 Feb 2015 10:02:34 +0000 Subject: [Swansea Hackspace] New faster Raspberry PI 2 Message-ID: <54CF4B3A.7040900@aurinia.co.uk> There is a new faster Raspberry PI that is available from today.

Trick to getting JSCut to do it was to make the hole you want drilled a tiny bit bigger, eg 0.1mm more, and set the 'minimum segment length' to 0.01mm you can then highlight and pocket mill the drill holes and it generates a suitable drill pattern. I did read that they are adding proper drill operations to next version. Cut outs are easy enough, just select the objects and outside mill them. FlatCAM is good at drilling, but expects excellon drill files etc From djdavies83 at hotmail.com Mon Feb 2 13:59:56 2015 From: djdavies83 at hotmail.com (djdavies83) Date: Mon, 2 Feb 2015 13:59:56 +0000 Subject: [Swansea Hackspace] Anyone on the CNC today?

This isn't going to be a taught course, more of a lets all have a go and see what we find affair There are some useful links on the website, having at least some of the toolchain installed will probably help you. http://swansea.hackspace.org.uk/Tutorials/ESP8266 bring any ESP8266 modules, jumper wires (esp. male to female dupont), breadboards, usb cables (male to female A), and interesting sensors etc that you have.

Earlier on I had a web controlled LED - I was able to control it from chrome on my iphone and via firefox on my imac (but not with safari on my iphone) the LED was on GPIO 2 (pin 4) - I am tempted to add one of these modules to one of my lamps at home and see how much fun I can have with it! The script I used was https://github.com/nodemcu/nodemcu-firmware/blob/master/lua_examples/webap_toggle_pin.lua I have one module setup with the above in AP mode with an init.lua to auto start the app so I access it direct via a mobile or laptop. And I have another module set up with the first two lines commented out so it joins my office WiFi so I don't have to change any device settings to access it. regards Emyr -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Short answer: not right now, no Long answer: A short in the wiring near the hot end of the extruder caused some of the wires to melt and it appears to have also damaged the A2D pin on the microcontroller that reads the extruder temperature. As we already had a replacement controller board in hand for upgrades we thought it worth just swapping the boards over, but having loaded new firmware onto the new controller board it briefly appeared to work, but has since stopped communicating. i took that board home last night, and will try to find out what has gone wrong and attempt to reprogram it. we have a possible fall back plan of rewiring the old board, and modifying the firmware to use some pins from an unused expansion port.

Got another quote from Cut Laser Cut (in London) for ?90 including material and shipping. A lot of money for what is basically a 500x450mm box with a smaller box on top. The design is a bit too complicated to do with a table saw and band saw (see attached .svg). I ended up using a styrofoam box instead: Not as aesthetically pleasing, but it does the job. For smaller designs, I?d really recommend Razorlab.co.uk . The quote process is completely automated (so you can play around with it a bit), and once I submitted my design it was made and shipped on the same day. I paid ?6.74 (including material, excluding P&P) for a design made on a 181x181mm sheet of 3mm MDF. > On 26 Feb 2015, at 22:35, Graham Owens wrote: > > Was/Is this resolved?
