Hello All:
My name is George and I'm getting ready to start working with my UltraBot 3D printer.
I decided not to go with the PiMaker version because I've beed working with X,Y,Z mechanisms since 1969. Really Old Fart!!!
And I have all the tool to do a formal analysis on the system (such as network analyzers)
I'm an electrical engineer by trade but retiring and moving into the world of mechanical engineering. I need the 3D printers to crank out prototypes that I will send out to users for evaluation. Then move to some sort of production either soft or hard molding systems.
I have a 3D CAD program (Punch CAD) but I'm not very good at it yet. So I've been using OpenSCAD to create my STL files. I have one other 3D printer in my shop cranking out work and I'm looking forward to getting the UltraBot up and running.
I'm talking with Mr Steele about a way to use my machine that might benefit the group.
So stay tuned.
gm
