Electronics

This post pretty much is just a heads-up, if there's anyone out there reading this blog.

Yesterday we bought our electronics base, Arduino Mega and four Pololu stepper motor controllers. Called "RAMPS" among reprappers, this system seems to be the most reliable and cutting edge.

We'll probably customize it to to our flavours, or implement a new system altogether later on. For now, though, we're playing safe. It's still long ways till we're actually print something reliably, but I'm getting more and more excited. :D (Eric probably is excited too, but he's just too cautious to express that. :P)


Until next time,
