So, presumably you mean the usb drivers for the Arduino Mega board you should be using with the RAMPS shield ? Don't have to install the arduino ide, just download the zip file version for windows, the main arduino.inf file should give you the drivers you need. (Hint: its not an FTDI chip) http://arduino.cc/download_handler.php?f=/arduino-1.6.0-windows.zip If its a prebuilt copy of Marlin you want, then send me the relevant config files and i will build it and send you the .hex file From djdavies83 at hotmail.com Mon Mar 2 13:59:23 2015 From: djdavies83 at hotmail.com (djdavies83) Date: Mon, 2 Mar 2015 13:59:23 +0000 Subject: [Swansea Hackspace] RAMPS Driver Message-ID: Is the firmware standard arduino file? If you have an android device and a usb OTG cable you could try arduinodroid, I've uploaded code to the Uno quite a few times using this app. Only problem I've found is if your code send out serial data arduinodroid won't be able to access after its uploaded, I had to add a serial transmit disable jumper code into the project. No animals were harmed in the making of this email. However, several thousand electrons were severely inconvenienced.

Correct, but those upgrades are now easier to deploy due to now having the correct wires running to the carriage.

There was a bit of a chicken and egg situation there, in order to fit the (afaik complete) 2nd extruder we need to print a new style of x-carriage to fit it to, as the existing one can only take smaller bowden type extruders. so the printer had to be made to work with the old carriage first. But the repairs have meant that the electronics have been upgraded, so it should be "just" the mechanical mountings that need to be done now.

As I understand it we'll have some potentially spare (slightly damaged) electronics, but no hot end. I believe the current one will be used in addition to the new one as part of the upgrades. - Tom From justin at swansea.hackspace.org.uk Wed Mar 18 17:30:59 2015 From: justin at swansea.hackspace.org.uk (Justin Mitchell) Date: Wed, 18 Mar 2015 17:30:59 +0000 Subject: [Swansea Hackspace] Summary of upcoming events Message-ID: <1426699859.31482.10.camel@justin.llw.rokcorp.com> Thursday 19th March 7pm-9pm Textiles Night: Making a Pin Cushion Learn to machine sew simple seams and construct your own pin cushion Saturday 21st March 11am-3pm CNC fabrication with JSCut & HeeksCAD An introduction to cutting and milling out simple designs on the CNC Mill, illustrated by cutting a sample piece from perspex Saturday 28th March 11am-5pm Arduino Day 2015 (Open Day) An open day to celebrate Arduino's Birthday, with drop in workshop, demonstrations and showcase of members projects.

There is now a list of the software you will need on the website (http://swansea.hackspace.org.uk/Meetings/Next) It would be very helpful if people could install at least Inkscape and preferably HeeksCNC before the workshop.

Subject: [Swansea Hackspace] Analog electronics workshop
Evening all, After several months delay, I am looking to run an analog electronics workshop looking at some basic filters and op-amp based circuits. If anyone would be interested in attending, please let me know. I'm looking to run the workshop on the 11th or the 18th of April - if anyone has a particular preference then let me know that as well. - Tom _______________________________________________ Hackspace mailing list Hackspace at swansea.hackspace.org.uk http://swansea.hackspace.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/hackspace -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I've been in contact with the What's On in Swansea Magazine (Links to the current edition are at the end of this email) Unfortunately the deadline for May/June edition has passed. It's not all doom and gloom, I've been asked for a press release as they may be able to feature us in a future edition, is there an existing press release? While I'm happy to create one I would need some help as I've not done one before. If we are able to pre plan some events for the July/August period we should hopefully be able to get into the free listing.? While dropping my little one off at Gendros Primary yesterday I dropped into the office with about 15 A4 sized flyers (My setup wouldn't let me print 2 per page, if someone has time to help me out and make a single PDF that has two A5 that would be great), they seamed happy enough to put some around the school and classes, I'll look into contacting other schools on Monday.? I wasn't able to make it into town this moring, on my way to Cardiff to sit a CSCS exam.?I'll try getting some Market stalls (Tom Whitehouse & Tool stall for example, places kinda hacking related, ideas welcome) I'll also try the Swansea visitor centre and maybe waterfront museum to display the flyer. I plan on contacting as many local physical and online publications as possible over the next few days. On to the bottle caps... We all go through a fair amount of milk so we should all be recycling, we have blue top full fat for our daughter and green top for ourselves, that's only two colours, and why I'm asking for other colours. Pretty much all milk bottle tops are made out of HDPE, high density polyethylene. I've watched a few video recently that shows how to recycle HDPE at home as a material for DIY projects, it's also a great material for CNC milling once it's been processed, I may even have a go at doing a night on the subject. How To Recycle HDPE Bottle Lids Into Flawless Fla?: http://youtu.be/rpXq6mnbCus As shown in the video and the attached image it's the type with "2" in the symbol. The colours I need to collect for a hackspace project are red and gold, you can probably see where I'm going with these colours. I've only seen gold on fizzy drinks bottles (attached image), I'm not about to buy these for the tops, not my taste but if any of you guys are buying these or happen to find a cap on the ground that's ace, orange or yellow caps could be recycled for the outer edge of the logo. That's me about done on these topics for now, thanks for reading and sorry I couldn't make it along today, would he been great the learn some more CNC and chat about publicity. All the best, Dave.

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: I have sent this message to the team. As for child protection I have some experience from filming with children and from organising Festivals. The rule is simple. NO LONE WORKING. Parents are always present, nobody is to be alone with the child. The risk is not one of us interfering with the child, but the child/parents making untrue allegations that we have done something to their child. there should always be two of us, the child and at least one parent at each meeting. I thought about e-nable because of the growth issues Ceri outlined... a 20K hand which theya re looking to get will soon be pretty useless when he outgrows it. The maybe less functional 3d printed hand may lack some functionality but is a great stop gap until they can raise huge funds for an expensive prosthetic so... here is my message to the team "Have you come across the E-Nable project? The e-nable project uses 3d printed 'hands' which cost very little to make. This is ideal especially for youngsters like Alan as he will quickly outgrown an expensive prosthetic limb and will soon need a replacement. I am a member of the Swansea Hackspace, and we meet on Monday nights at 7pm on the 4th floor of the Tech Hub building on Wind Street. (Green gates opposite Nando's) We have a 3d printer and lots of clever people who can design and make things on the printer. Would you like to come along on a Monday night to meet us? We could have a chat and see if we could help Alan by making a hand or hands for him?

Personally I feel quite moved by the plight of this poor little boy and feel that it is our moral duty to help if we can. It needs the utmost of tact and I think we should make contact carefully, and gently and start by saying we MAY be able to help. There are all sorts of things we don't know. I'd be surprised , for example, if the NHS hasn't already provided some kind of prosthetic. What are these "bionic hands" in design? I suspect they are reading and using nerve impulses. Even this isn't beyond us in theory , but practice is another matter. We should offer help just as a matter of pure humanity and we should see any PR as a secondary issue and a bonus if it happens. How to make contact is another thing, but there is that Facebook page. There may also be an issue about the word "hacker" as well and I would suggest something on the lines as describing us as a group of engineering and electronics enthusiasts. Perhaps mentioning some of our people are university types would help. Neil > > On Mon, Mar 23, 2015 at 10:46 AM, djdavies83 > wrote: > > Here here, well said. > > What's the best way for us to help?

Who knows how long this item will be available, so if we want to go for it we will have to do so quickly. If have started a fresh pledge drive, please show your approval of this acquisition by pledging as much as you can. http://swansea.hackspace.org.uk/Equipment/LaserCutter From em at preseli.com Sun Mar 29 16:02:02 2015 From: em at preseli.com (Emyr Morris) Date: Sun, 29 Mar 2015 16:02:02 +0100 Subject: [Swansea Hackspace] spark.io In-Reply-To: <1427637532.9476.1.camel@emerald.geode.org.uk> References: <1427637532.9476.1.camel@emerald.geode.org.uk> Message-ID: I returned mine.

Yay, we got there! I have flipped the pledge drive into collection mode. If people could please pay up as soon as they can, then we can order it. You can pay by BACS with a reference of your name and the word pledge, Our account no. etc on http://swansea.hackspace.org.uk/Account/Account or pay with cash to one of the directors (please ask for a receipt) then mark on the web page that you have paid! Thanks everyone for your support, we shall of course start running workshops using it just as soon as we get it setup and working (and safety checked).
