I apologize for my stream of consciousness posting, but I'm running out of time for Makerfaire in four days. I was hoping to get this configured and printing in time for the show, but I'm not sure I can make it happen. This Machinekit interface is very difficult to get going for linear delta

OK, again, making progress. Using the Ilaro config files, I changed the dimensions to my printer's, and fixed the step timings for the Alegro stepper controllers I'm usng. The quandry I had about motion direction appears to be understandable by me now. I was looking at the cartesian coordinates

So, The printer is electromechanically complete, it is time for Machinekit on Beaglebone Black with CRAMPS to be configured. I loaded up the SD card image from the Machinekit link to the Debian auto packager as mentioned above Opened up Machinekit with the default ArmCramps demo files, and all

[Machinekit] Re: Home Built Delta Printer With Machinekit Interface, Makerfaire NYC 2016 Exhibit #58459

Now I have 5 days left to get this printer done for Makerfaire. I spent the last week doing assembly and design of some new improvements, such as mounting the E3D Titan extruder directly on the effector platform. Using a 1/3 size (13 oz./in.) NEMA 17 stepper, I was able to get the entire direct
