3D Printer Calibration Night

Last night, CCCKC members brought in their Makerbots and RepRaps for a round of heater barrel calibrations performed using a thermocouple and an arduino mysteriously taken from my toolbox. I don’t think I’ve ever seen so many printers in one place.

Here’s some photos:

In Addition, there was also this great Mendel XL that is nearing completion:

    [...] far as I can tell 7 3D printers gathered at CCCKC to go share calibration stories and try things [...]

    Ya know, I’m a new makerbot owner absolutely pulling my hair out, because resources on this subject are woefully incomplete. As there are 7 of you who have just calibrated your machines, would you PLEASE post a step by step, with pictures and references, of the entire process.

    hey, an iPad!

    now, for someone to write a jailbreak app to take a GCode file on the device filesystem, then send it line-by-line over serial on bluetooth, to a makerbot.

    yay!
