A
So
on
the
filament
maker
moving
forward,
maybe
wes
can
provide
an
update
on
the
electronics
part
on
a
torch
table,
we're
moving
forward
with
the
design,
the
cad,
that's
the
main
development,
so
we're
actually
printing
parts,
some
of
the
auto
parallel
mechanism,
there's
a
final
assembly,
that's
in
process
and
that's
useful
to
take
a
look
at.
C
B
D
A
Yeah
so
moving
forward
right
on
all
the
prints,
then
we
can
priority
would
be
to
so.
We
do
have
some
of
the
prints
already,
so
we
can
start
assembling
reassembling
we've
got
one
of
the
other
parallels,
so
we
can
hang
at
least
the
x-axis
after
on
the
two
y-axis,
but
the
major
milestone
be
okay.
Let's
see
how
well
the
y
is
moving.
So
when
we
get
out
there,
let's,
let's
assemble
that
right,
we
can.
We
can
pretty
much
go
forward
with
that.
A
A
Okay,
do
we
want
to
try
and
maybe
run
the
first
axis
and
just
make
sure
everything
is
working
like
it
should
with
that
then
tension
it
and
because
that
could
give
us
feedback
for,
if
we're
doing
the
second
tensioning
mechanism,
if
we've
got
to
make
any
changes
or
anything
like
that,
let's
do
that,
because
in
a
rapid
prototyping
sense
as
soon
as
you
build
something
like
yeah,
don't
replicate
further
just
test
that
immediately
as
quickly
as
we
can.
So
we
can
do
that
test,
the
just
the
y1
axis
by
itself.
A
Yeah
yeah:
let's
do
that
because,
and
that
way
we
can
basically
clean
up
around
the
torch
area
and
get
everything
pretty
much
into
the
final
state.
One
thing
we
haven't
talked
about
is
things
like
important
things
like
the
cable,
routing
and
cable
chains.
For
it
to
be
very
functional.
You
do
want
to
get
a
pretty
good
routing
with
the
cable
chains.
We
could
probably
revisit-
maybe
maybe
start
printing
that
again,
but
there's
some
consideration.
We
should
definitely
make
for
that.
A
So
on
one
side,
there's
after
the
z
with
the
basic
torch
setup
and
solenoids,
I
think
the
state
of
completion
would
be
the
z
probe.
That's
retractable
because
we
got
a
bed
level,
that's
a
definite
one,
but
the
basic
gas
system
is
just
basic
on
and
off.
I
don't
really
care
about
the
igniter
as
the
first
step.
We
can
add
that,
but
initially
we
want
to
make
sure
that
we
got
proper
z
motion,
proper
z,
leveling,
the
gas
turn
on
could
be.
I
mean
the
manual
thing
is
the
first
thing
to
test.
A
Still
we
don't
have
to
worry
about
the
gas
solenoids.
In
fact
I
would.
I
would
suggest
we
just
do
the
as
we
mount
the
the
torch
since
it's
all
disassembled
we
might
as
well
I'll
just
try,
try
the
manual
turn
on
right
at
the
control
panel
in
terms
of
the
progress
of
testing,
because
we
haven't
even
shown
that
full,
fully
working
and
and
if
that's
working,
you
know,
we've
got
pretty
much
a
ready
torch
table.
A
Yeah
after
we
move
the
modify
the
second
y
carriage,
I
mean
we
can
assemble
everything
back
together
and
it
should
go
pretty
quickly
because
now
the
pieces
are
pretty
much
for
rapid
connection
like
the
motors
we
just
put
them
on
from
the
front
as
far
as
the
mounting
the
x,
between
the
wires
that
just
screws
through
the
side
like
no
no
messing
around
just
screws
through
the
side
like
no
hidden,
nuts
or
anything
or
or
excessive
number
of
bolts
like
we're
using
right
now
with
the
the
current
z
mounting
with
the
metal
plates.
A
That's
I
think
we
can
bypass
a
lot
of
that
with
simplicity
here
so
yeah
in
the
next
next
couple
of
days.
Hopefully
run
this
thing
all
right.
So
that's
moving
forward
so
yeah,
let's
test
it
then
x,
sorry,
the
y
one
first
and
then
that
makes
us
test
the
actual
plug
for
the
idler,
like
all
those
components
which
are
which
we
haven't
really
tested.
Yet
so
we'll
test
the
whole
system
on
one
axis
and
then
move
forward,
yep
wes.
A
You
want
to
give
us
an
update
on
the
state
of
the
filament
maker
heat
control
code.
I'd
be
particularly
curious.
How
you
did.
Can
you
maybe
give
us
a
short
lesson
on
on
how
to
modify
the
the
screen
to
do
with
the
graphics
like
you
did,
or
that's
too
complicated
to
go
through.
D
D
E
Don't
really
want
to
do
coding
on
my
laptop
it's
I
just
used
this
library
called
uag
uagt.
I
think
it's
basically
just
a.
B
D
E
E
E
Well,
I
rendered
some
text
by
code
and
then
I
and
then
I
drew
the
through
the
design
with
face
sprite,
which
is
like
I
said
I
could
write
this
up
on.
It's
kind
of
involved
right
because
there's
like.
D
D
D
E
A
E
A
Well,
because
there's
I
looked
at
it
and
it
said:
there's
the
the
one
that
microsoft
ships
is.
It's
got
its
proprietary
stuff,
so
it's
not
clean,
but
there's
apparently
something
called
vs
codium
that
it's
like
chromium
is
the
open
source
version
of
it.
Okay,.
D
B
E
E
I
believe
it's
like
profiling,
it's
kind
of
like
tracking
the
performance
of
software.
D
Okay,
I.
A
E
D
A
E
B
D
A
When
you
did
your
program
for
the
arduino
mega,
is
it
largely
using
arduino
style
commands
or
more
c,
because
I
mean
arduino
environment
is
c
right,
but
it's
got.
E
D
A
Yeah
do
that
that
would
be
useful
now,
as
far
as
is
there
any
visual
editor
where
you
can
actually
edit
the
lcd
screen
and
then
actually
have
it
spit
out
the
code
for
the
image.
E
A
Yeah,
it
would
be
good
like
we
definitely
want
to
build
upon
it
like
build
our.
As
I
mentioned,
we
want
to
do
the
brick
press,
controller
and
other
things
using
the
little
lcd,
because
it's
pretty
convenient
to
do
it,
so
that
would
actually
simplify
the
builds
of
or
like
the
integration
of
all
the
different
control
systems
once
again,
going
back
to
the
universal
controller
and
not
using
too
many
other
specialized
components.
D
A
Yeah,
okay,
that
sounds
good,
so.
A
You
mean
your
custom,
your
custom
version.
Are
you
talking
to
him
you're,
going
back
to
universal
controller
with
martin,
not
marlin,
you're,
just
saying
universal
controller,
with
your
code
yep,
for
example,
if
you
do
the
lcd
toggle
button,
so
that
that
means
things
like
libraries
for
that
particular
lcd
screen.
D
D
E
The
u
gt
is
like
a
generic
rendering
library
that
works
with
multiple
lcds,
and
one
of
them
is
the
discount
lcd
right
and
then.
But
if
I
wanted
to
use
the
the
button
on
it,
it
might
require
a
more
specific
library,
just
that
works
just
for
that
lcd.
D
D
A
A
All
right
that
sounds
good
and
just
brief
discussion
and
you
asked
about
the
state
of
open
hardware
development.
My
comment
on
that
is
the
thing
that
really
needs
to
go
forward
in
open.
Hardware,
in
my
view,
is
the
the
enterprise
part,
because
that's
how
people
make
a
living
out
of
this.
A
But
the
potential
is
there,
but
to
date
I
mean
I
talked
to
I
mean
I
talked
to
hundreds
of
open
source
projects
and
it's
like
nobody
to
date
has
come
on
board
in
terms
of
okay.
We're
gonna
explicitly
talk
about
in
an
open
project,
not
like
some
small
startup
group
or
anything
just
an
open
project
where
you're
actually
moving
forward
on
an
enterprise
that
any
one
of
the
developers
then
can
can
then
use
and
the
idea
there
is
well.
A
Why
make
it
like
a
kernel
of
of
an
enterprise
as
opposed
to?
Oh,
we
just
bunch
up
in
a
startup
garage
and
do
it
well,
because
you
can
provide
more
service
to
the
world
if
you
distribute
that
widely,
as
opposed
to
okay,
here's
one
startup,
because
once
you
go
into
the
startup
mode
I
mean.
Typically,
there
are
no
startups
that
collaborate
openly
so
there's
so
the
you
have
to
make
a
choice.
Do
I
go
into
this
more
closed
way
of
development
as
a
startup
or
an
open,
open
way?
A
And
so
far
the
open
way
is
not
nobody
really
gets
it.
Nobody
really
understands
it
and
I
haven't
seen
it
happen
anywhere,
but
the
potential
is
large,
because
people
can
then
rapidly
and
well
anywhere
in
the
world.
Do
the
same
thing.
So
the
economic
output
could
be
much
greater
and
in
theory
you
can
get
more
people
to
collaborate
on
that,
because
everyone
has
access
to
this
know-how
and
it
also
solves
governance
issues
in
that
style
of
development.
A
Where
you
develop
an
enterprise
kernel
because
a
lot
of
times
it's
like
well,
how
do
we
divvy
up
the
loot
once
we
make
money
kind
of
deal?
It's
like
all
about
all
this
stuff
like
who
gets
what
value
out
of
that
project
before
there's
even
a
product
like
that's.
We
had
plenty
of
those
discussions
here
in
the
summer
right
and
it's
it's
a
wasted
discussion,
because
you
cannot
ever
foretell
the
future
what
the
future
is
going
to
bring.
A
So
the
only
way
you
can
really
address
it
is
okay,
we're
going
to
say
I
will
call
collaborate
openly,
we
develop
product,
anyone
has
access
to
it
and
you
have
to
worry
like
if
you're
going
to
make
money.
The
money
comes
from
your
agency.
You
have
the
avail
availability
of
the
enterprise
materials
like
say
the
3d
printer
and
then
from
your
initiative.
A
You
can
run
that
enterprise.
Can
you
can
run
it
in
indonesia?
We
can
run
it
in
america,
it's
open
to
anybody,
so
you
don't
get
into
the
the
divi
up
the
loot
kind
of
the
allocation
like
the
payment
discussions
too
early
in
the
game
which
which
in
open
source,
that's
not
part
of
it.
Everyone
contributes
openly
so
that
everyone
can
benefit.
Do
you
think
it's
impossible
with
that
model?
A
Absolutely
absolutely,
and,
and
the
missing
link
is
what
I've
said
100
times
and
it's
people
showing
up
so
how
many
people
can
actually
show
up
to
that
development
to
get
all
those
pieces
ready
like,
for
example,
yesterday
you
popped
in
and
you
did
the
lcd
for
the
the
filament
maker.
Well,
man,
that's!
Okay!
That's
an
enterprise
asset!
That's
towards
that
product!
A
We're
developing!
Now
we've
got
an
lcd
interface,
that's
going
to
be
better
and
so
forth.
So
imagine
that
all
kinds
of
people
came
into
that
project,
others
and
business
development,
others
and
sourcing
and
marketing,
and
all
that
and
the
thing
actually
becomes
as
quality
as
any
kind
of
proprietary
development,
and
I
think
it's
largely
the
cultural
mindset
that
people
aren't
used
to
that
way
of
thinking
they're
like
well.
How
am
I
going
to
make
money
like
everyone
else?
A
Has
access
I'm
going
to
get
knocked
out
of
competition,
but
it
can
work
for
large
market
items
where
the
markets
are
huge
like
if
ken's
running
his
printer
in
indonesia,
it
does
not
affect
what
I
do
in
america.
A
A
It
can
enable
everybody
to
participate
because
everyone
drinks
drinks
and
it's
like
the
startup
capital-
is
not
so
huge,
it's
probably
easier
than
the
home
than
the
home
project,
but
it
could
apply
to
anything
like
if
ken's
gonna
be
making
toilet
paper
in
indonesia.
If
not,
it
doesn't
affect
what
we're
gonna
be
doing
here
with
that
same
product.
There's
some
products
that
have
just
huge
markets.
A
A
But
what
do
we
mean
by
this
single
taker?
Someone,
someone
who
actually
comes
into
that
kind
of
environment?
Well,
there's
plenty
of
people
that
have
no
products
and
say:
oh
yeah
I'll,
do
that,
but
they
have
no
products,
but
once
people
get
far
enough
and
they
actually
have
something
very
close
to
a
product.
Initial
prototypes-
and
you
know
proofs
of
concept
and
actual
working
working
things
ready
for
commercialization.
A
It's
like
nah
doesn't
happen.
It's
a
lot
of.
It
is
the
psychology
that
okay,
I
put
all
this
work
into
it
and
probably
like
no
one
helped
me
it's
mine
and
nobody
will
share,
but
that's
the
whole
mindset
that
the
whole
society
is
going
forward
with,
and
it
can
certainly
be
overcome
with
an
example
or
two
to
the
contrary
and
for
us
it's
still
the
house
like,
I
I
I
think
it's
still
close
and
getting
closer
we're
we're
close
to
that.
We
got
to
finish
this.
A
One
start
tours
start
getting
orders
and
stuff
like
that,
and
then
we
teach
people
how
to
build
them,
and
we
say:
oh,
you
can
actually
start
up
an
enterprise
like
this
elsewhere
and
things
like
that.
So
that's
a
more
hard
project
because
I
mean
house
building
is
not
easy
as
we
know,
but
the
concept
completely
applies,
but
it's
just
unheard
of
there's
people
are
not
ready
for
it.
Yet
it's
a
little
bit
of
a
head
of
ahead
of
the
time
sure.
E
But
I'm
I'm
trying
to
figure
out.
You
know
I'm
on
board
with
distributive
enterprise,
but
like
I'm,
trying
to
figure
out
the
best
the
best
way
I
can
sort
of
accelerate
or
shift
society
towards
this
future.
E
E
A
Yeah
yeah
it's
getting
specific
like,
for
example,
in
a
house,
maybe
the
specific
angle
we
approached
it
from
yesterday.
I
was
looking
at
some
of
the
numbers
of
what
it
would
take
to
do
off-grid,
but
the
solar
power,
like
maybe,
focus
on
okay.
These
are
off-grid
capable
homes
that
now,
instead
of
paying
two
thousand
like
people
pay
two
thousand
to
three
thousand
bucks
on
average
for
utilities,
just
electricity
and
gas
for
a
year
per
year
for
per
household.
A
It's
like
man
well
just
put
in
an
eight
thousand
dollar
renewable
energy
system,
on
a
roof
with
with
the
photovoltaics
and
inverters
and
and
actually
the
nickel
iron
battery,
I
think,
is
a
good
candidate
design.
It
would
be
for
super
efficiency
using
various
techniques
like
make
it
a
really
smart
home
and
then
you're
completely
off
grid
capable
you're
saving,
2
000
bucks
a
year
which
adds
up.
I
mean
that
in
itself
so
say
say:
the
house
cost
you
100k,
but
you
know
every
year,
you're
saving,
two
thousand.
E
Sure,
I
think
that's
another
viable
strategy
for
open
sources
rather
than
trying
to
earn
money.
You
you
literally
just
save
people,
money
and.
A
D
A
But
if
you
look
at
it
in
the
house
like,
if
the
model
evolves
to
reputation
sufficient
that
you're
getting
the
money
up
front,
you
get
a
client,
you
get.
You
become
a
custom
builder,
for
example,
not
like
speculative
housing,
where
you
build
it,
put
it
on
the
market
and
wait
to
get
paid
like,
however
long
it
takes
to
get
sold
here,
you're
talking
about
okay
client,
they
pay
you.
A
A
That's
true,
but
but
it's
not
necessarily
that
the
special
market
segment
would
be
those
people
that
have
do
have
the
money,
but
also
in
the
nature
of
downshifting
that
they
don't
want
that
cookie
cutter
like
mansion,
that's
five
hundred
thousand
dollars.
They
actually
won.
Let's
say
hey
I
want
to
save.
I
don't
want
to
have
this
burden,
so
they
have
to
be
different
thinkers.
So
maybe
there's
not
enough
people
like
that.
A
I
don't
know,
but
somehow
we'll
what's
our
greatest
chance
of
making
this
work,
it's
like
it
to
the
point
of
people
gaining
finance
like
if
a
person
pays
700
or
1200
in
rent,
they
can
typically
get
financing.
So
that'll
be
the
part,
that's
accessible,
because
if
you
pay
that
much
rent,
you
can
get
a
bank
loan
too.
Typically
so
there's
a
clear,
there's,
definitely
a
clear
route
that
just
by
bank
financing
you
can
you
can
make
it
happen.
B
A
G
To
plug
in
the
new
firmware
we're
gonna
set
the
temperature
setting.
Let's
see
how
well
probably
fixture
the
auger
somehow.
G
A
Oh
yeah
and
we
learned
polycarbonate,
it
is
so
260
to
290
which
the
higher
temperature
will
get
rid
of
a
lot
of
that,
but
yeah.
It
was
pretty
amazing
to
show
to
see
that
that
amount
of
back
pressure.
A
Now,
if
you
look
at
the
absolute
numbers,
we
said
something
like
170
like
kilogram
centimeters
or
something
with
that
motor
torque.
So
let's
just
take
a
look
at
that
figure:
real
quick
for
what
was
happening
there.
The
spec
is
173
kilograms,
centimeters
yeah,
that's
a
lot!
What
that
means,
if
you're,
spinning
and
actually
biting
into
and
pressing
down
with
the
flutes,
an
equivalent
opposite
force
like
okay?
Yes,
it's
rotation,
but
rotation.
That
is
a
screw
it.
A
The
resulting
force,
reactive
forces
upwards,
on
the
order
of
this
kind
of
number
here,
so
we
would
be
pressing
like
a
hundred
kilos.
A
D
A
Yeah
yeah,
so
once
we
get
to
the
higher
temperature-
and
we
just
want
to
be
careful
that
we
don't
start
burning
things
so
lower
the
temperature.
If
we
get
start
to
see
any
traces
of
darkness
there.
A
G
A
If
you
can,
what
else
to
cover
regarding
the
temperature.
E
Add
three
thermistors
and
three
heaters
or
just
to
work
with
two.
I
mean
the
main
thing
that
the
main
issue
now
is:
there's
uneven
distribution
or
some
of
these
heaters
like
transfer
feed
around.
So
I
mean
we
had
it
stable
yesterday,
but
it
was
kind
of
weird
how
both
the
misters
were
placed
in
this
place.
G
Yeah
so
the
reason
they're
placed
at
that
is
to
have
one
under
and
one
above,
the
plan
was
just
to
run
one
heater,
so
I
just
want
to
have
a
good.
E
G
E
G
We
need
to
keep
the
heating
element
at
the
bottom.
We
can
add
intermediary
heating
steps
further
up,
although
I
don't
think
there's
much
friction
with
the
cold,
the
polycarbonate,
so
our
issue
was
mainly
that
it
was
30
degrees
too
low.
Maybe.
E
It
was
just
too
that
was
suspended
quickly
as
well.
G
F
A
500
celsius,
it's
probably
the.
B
E
E
D
G
Different
layers
of
it,
so
if
we
look
at
the
last
picture
that
I
uploaded,
the
changement
is
a
bit
placed
so
in
the
lowest
level
of
the
fermi
maker.
That's
where
I
placed
one
thermistor
just.
