3D printing with RepRap Cookbook

By: Salinas

Overview of this book

A systematic guide consisting of over 100 recipes which focus on helping you understand the process of 3D printing using RepRap machines. The book aims at providing professionals with a series of working recipes to help make their fuzzy notions into real, saleable projects/objects using 3D printing technology. This book is for novice designers and artists who own a RepRap-based 3D printer, have fundamental knowledge of its working, and who desire to gain better mastery of the printing process. For the more experienced user, it will provide a handy visual resource, with side-by-side comparisons of the two most popular slicers, Skeinforge and Slic3r. A basic understanding of designing and modeling principles and elementary knowledge of digital modeling would be a plus.

Getting the Arduino IDE to recognize the Sanguinololu

The Arduino IDE is written for authentic Arduino controllers and thus only comes loaded with these controller-board options. Its open source environment has allowed developers to create the addition of ATmega boards such as the Sanguinololu. In order for this to work, additional files are needed.

For Arduino Version 1.0.1, download the zipped file sanguino-0101r1.zip via https://code.google.com/p/sanguino/downloads/detail?name=Sanguino-0101r1.zip&can=2&q.

For Arduino Version 0023, download the zipped file sanguino1284p-master via https://github.com/jmgiacalone/sanguino1284p.

Place the folder's contents into the hardware folder nested in the Arduino program folder. If Windows asks you to merge or overwrite files, indicate yes. The Sanguinololu boards now become available.
