I have simple CNC milling machine build on GRBL with easy drivers. My ugly setup is based on breadboard now and is'nt mechanically stable enough for serious milling. I will try to rebuild it to RepRap. Are yours boards or designs available some way. Thanks. Hi,

I am looking for an alternative, cheaper, than the rather unavailable electronic hardware :-) With kind regards, Michael Hi,

I am currently starting to build a Mendel and would love to get hold of one of these boards. Do you have any spare I could buy from you? or could you publish the schematics so I could get my own made? Thanks!

I have found cheap DB25 port microstepping driver board 1/16 setpping for ar3 A max and 2A normal... may be u can use that for your project.... very nice set up can you post your schematics ?…. i am also looking for gen 3 alternatives!!!!!

Where did you get the female pin connector block from that you soldered to the board. do you have a RS or Farnel part number or something? Im just prototyping a board to mount the easydrivers.

As made clear above, the RepRap electronics are EXPENSIVE (~$200) and they are never in stock. This is a great way to handle the electronics for the RepRap. I particularly like the fact that microstepping is available. Also, the fact that the Mega has built in USB support (unlike the RepRap Motherboard) saves money and adds simplicity. Please, post the designs! This is amazing! PS: That heated bed controller looks just as nice! This is amazing!

I am working on an almost identical electronics setup. Can you make your board design gerbers available? Thanks! Hi, this looks like great work. I am working on an almost identical electronics setup.

This looks like the way to go. I will be watching this for my next bot. Excellent work! This looks like the way to go. I will be watching this for my next bot.

I've currently got generation 2 electronics setup, and I've been looking at upgrading the electronics so I can use a stepper extruder. The gen 3 boards are great, but if they're not in stock, it's impossible to get hold of. I really prefer your modular approach - It's so much easier to re-use for later upgrades and/or replace parts! Fantastic work. Really interested in your board designs, since I'm looking at getting some stepper drivers soon myself. Renoir Wow. Love your work.

If yes, can you run multiple repraps on a single board? One question about the Seeduino and Arduino mega: Since they both have 14 PWM lines, does that mean you can run 14 steppers at a time?
