Hi All,

I'm looking at building one of these bit by bit and substituting local parts as I go. Does anyone have a CAD file of the REPRAP machine.
I'm a designer and it would be easier to try/test on a pc.
From the pix, it looks like the model has been modelled on CATIA.
Is this correct ?

Thanks.

Sorry, which pictures are you referring to? A lot of the parts are developed in AoI. The parts are still being finalised, but stay tuned.

i've wondered this myself some times... i've seen 3d renderings from Ed, but it would be nice to have that stuff accessible on the web. i'd imagine once we get close to the 1.0 release, we'll move more and more of that stuff into the light.

feel free to attempt and document stuff in an open format. i'll even help you get it up on the wiki.

I think you are talking about the Darwin render. They have mentionned a couple of times that they were using SolidEdge as their cad software. As a solid edge user myself, it really looks like a solidedge render. It would be nice to have access to the SEcad files by the way.

i agree. that type of document should definitely be put into subversion, even if it isnt in a finished state. dont let ed get all the fun.

Yes - we're designing Dawin using Solid Edge for speed initially, then we'll convert it (non automatically...) into AoI. It's in the Subversion repository in the Miscellaneous section.
