This time Graxe describes the communications and controller boards, how they work and what they do.  He’s using a bootable USB drive that contains all the software needed to work and communicate with the RepRap.  Graxe also explains how one loads a file for printing and what type of files are excepted.  Better lighting this time around… still in 720p goodness, enjoy!

BIG thanks go out again to Graxe for coming down and sharing the RepRap goodness! :D

So, Graxe was kind enough to drive down and share all his awesome gear with me.  I decided to take a bit of video last night, as he was unpacking.  The video is a little dark, as it was an impromptu session.  The battery was almost dead, so the video cuts out near the end.

Fear not… after a trip to the Chinese buffet, we plan to return and do more electronics work.  We also plan on taking some more video and pictures… hopefully a little better quality this time around ;)
