Hi, I've just downloaded the Mendel Git repo, and read most of the web site, but can't find a simple BoM (Bill of Materials). Does anyone know if such a thing exists? I can hack through the instructions and work backwards, but a spreadsheet would make life a lot simpler.

Second, does the Mendel tri colour use the Duet board? It seems to have the melzi in the instructions.

Thanks

I believe the original Mendel Tricolour uses two Melzi boards, one configured as master and the other as slave. But you could use a Duet and DueX4 instead, which would give you a faster USB connection and a web interface.
