Getting the source code
--
Getting the (development) source files
========================================
Install git (http://git-scm.com/) onto your system. Then run a clone:
git clone git://github.com/carlosgs/Cyclone-PCB-Factory.git
This will download the latest sources into a directory named 'openscad'.
git clone git://github.com/carlosgs/Cyclone-PCB-Factory.git
This will download the latest sources into a directory named 'Cyclone-PCB-Factory'.
Important step:
----------------
To pull the MCAD (<http://reprap.org/wiki/MCAD>) and Obiscad (<https://github.com/Obijuan/obiscad>) libraries, do the following:
cd Cyclone-PCB-Factory
git submodule update --init
Bill of materials
cd Cyclone-PCB-Factory
git submodule update --init
Bill of materials (to be updated and moved to the RepRap wiki page)

To-Do list
--
- **Firmware:**
- Keep motors always on, in order to do homing only once each milling session
- **Misc:**
- Create assembly instructions
News

**Firmware**
- No news, it is Marlin with support for G30 probing command
Interesting links & Misc. ideas

- **Water-cooled spindle motors!** <http://www.goodluckbuy.com/electronics/motor-and-controller.html> via **Marcos Villacampa** (@MarkVillacampa)
- **We could use a thermistor to measure the temperature of the spindle motor:** this way the software could "let it rest" when it gets too hot.
