Re: Relay with heater (toaster)
Thank you both :) Going to be trying it out in the next few days so hopefully nothing goes drastically wrong! Ah, thanks Yellobello - it's a slightly ill-conceived university project :)

This is intended for GRBL which doesn't use arduino's bootloader, so changing the pins would require writing the firmware through the icsp port not something everyone can do. But maybe I should switch...
View ArticleRe: Feedback wanted for single access GRBL shield
The bootloader isn't involved in firmware operations at all. Firmware works the same way regardless of which bootloader ist there or wether there's a bootloader at all.

Hi Guys I'm about to order a DIY RAMPS1.4 kit, but have to choose between optical and mechanical end stops. There is a wiki page on the topic, but the only conclusion I can make out of it is that...
View ArticleRe: Mechanical or Optical end stop?
Long ongoing debate. There's simply no clear winner. As a perfectionist I always used optical ones so far. Even while there are reports about them failing in direct sunlight.

Hi, just got mine a few days ago, and as Wmtdanimal said, it warps - even cold it is slightly bulging in the centre, so you can't get a nice even surface. I'll probably end up putting the glass plate...

Are these beds the ones that do both 12V and 24V? Could the people complaining it's slow be hooking the 12V up to the 24V pins? Also, if you're using electronics that have a PTC fuse, you may find...

Ok, thanks. I'll go for the simplest solution for now.
