Test drives of R13 have started.
During the test of my Creality CR10v2 I had printed parts for a new Rover. Meanwhile this vehicle is up for first test runs. There is still some fine tuning on hard- and software needed, but you can try it out in my RoboSpatium. I have also written the chapter about the build instruction of R13.

Review Creality CR-10V2
Creality sent me the latest version of their CR-10 series, the CR-10V2. While creating my review video about this 3D printer I have printed parts for a new rover that I am working on.

Mobile laser engraver with NEJE KZ3000
With the NEJE D-8KZ3000 I received my first laser engraver. The cheap device has only a small workspace, but experimenting with this new technology was a lot of fun. I built a mobile engraving station using a Raspberry Pi and a powerbank.
The machinery I will display are a new version of my CNC series, the demo console servo drives as well as a not yet really working prototype of a filament extruder. Hope to see you on the Siemens booth!

Direct Granule Extruder
If you own a 3D printer, you will sooner or later wonder if and how you could use waste plastics instead of filament to print. That's exactly why I have built an extruder that can handle plastic granules. As usually, I have searched for ways to create a mechanics that works without special parts.
Make Munich
I am at the Make Munich on March 2 + 3 at the stand of my sponstor Siemens. Besides my upgraded CNC v3.2.2 I will show my latest Rover R12 that you can test drive.
Furthermore I am working on a demo using an industrial servo motor besides a homemade variant of that drive. I am looking forward to interesting talks and hope to get new ideas for future projects!

Bulid instruction CNC v3.2.2
I have added large parts of the build instruction of CNC v3.2.2. I am still working on minor details of the mechanics, on large parts of the software and a second type of motor electronics.
Zonestar P802QR2
With the Zonestar P802QR2 I got my first 3D printer with dual extruder. What's special in printing with two extruders is written and told in my review including a video.
In the column Shopping tips I have listed new special offers for 3D printers.
What is the aim of the Award?
"We are looking for young developers and engineers that have created something special in the early years of their career or for students that will become the brains behind future innovation of electronics."
You think that's what you are or you know a special talent in electronics? Join the competition!
I am looking forward to study exciting projects in detail.
