I've come to the conclusion that all cats are Schrödinger cats. They want to be simultaneously on both sides of every door.
#RepRapFirmware 3.5 can support a scanning bed sensor! Here's a prototype using a LDC1612 breakout board connected to a #Duet3D tool board. youtu.be/969s3J8EEyM
Now showing at the Duet3D booth at #rmrrf: not just one closed loop axis, but two of them running asynchronously thanks to multiple motion systems supported by #reprapfirmware. – at Colorado, USA
Farewell to 3D Meetup Sweden and Helsingborg for another year. This time I took the electric ferry back to Denmark. It's almost surreal travelling on a ferry without the usual engine noise.
The 8 new @ElecHighway chargers at Solstice Park are a great help for EV owners like me travelling between Somerset and elsewhere in the UK. But when will we get more chargers at Fleet Services and Gloucester Services?
#Duet3D has led the way in WiFi-enabled #3dprinting since the 2017 launch of Duet WiFi. They now have pre-production WiFi modules for the powerful 6HC 1.02 board. Like all Duets - and unlike WiFi addons for most other boards - they use a high speed interface for fast uploading.
Can't find a Raspberry Pi for your 3D printer? #RepRapFirmware provides a web interface including GCode animator and height map, input shaping and lots more on Duets and other suitable network-equipped controller boards, without needing a Pi or other single board computer.

Prusa Research has just announced improved thermal safety for their 3D printers by using a thermal model of the hot end, blog.prusa3d.com/mk3s-3-12-b…. But #RepRapFirmware has had this feature since 2016!
A week ago we upgraded our solar PV to 10kW and got a 10kWh battery. Since then we've been almost self sufficient for electricity, hot water and even EV charging. And the government is about to give us £400 towards electricity costs!

In June 2018 we released the first version of #RepRapFirmware that was built around a real-time operating system (FreeRTOS).
Four years later, RRF is AFAIK still the only open source 3D printer control software for available hardware that uses a real-time operating system.
