Cyclone-PCB-Factory v0.9.7 =================== ![ScreenShot](Media/CycloneLogo_1/CycloneLogo_1.png) The first 3D-printable (Rep-Rap alike) CNC machine, intended for PCB manufacture. ![ScreenShot](Media/Cyclone_built_v0.9.7.jpg) Mail list / Forum -- If you are interested in this project, please consider joining our mail list: **** Any help is appreciated, particularly with software development :) Wiki entry on RepRap.org -- *Must read: Progress and current status of the Cyclone proyect:* Getting the source code -- 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'. To pull the MCAD () and Obiscad () libraries, do the following: cd Cyclone-PCB-Factory git submodule update --init Bill of materials -- _Work in progress_ Kobus' Robsbots' Carlosgs' Tutorials -- _Work in progress_ Also take a look to these branches -- More: 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 -- - **Open Source SMT Pick and Place Hardware and Software** via **Marcos Villacampa** (@MarkVillacampa) - **Water-cooled spindle motors!** 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.
