I want to try them out, but I'm waiting for the Reach, as I want to work with PT100's (I contacted them, and Elias has offered to let me beta test the reach sometime this year). Keep us posted with how it works. I'm definitely interested.
Machines:
Rostock Max V2, Duet .8.5, PT100 enabled E3D V6 and volcano, Raymond style enclosure
Automation Technology 60W laser cutter/engraver
1m X-carve router

Looking Nice. I'm still building a new printer so can't try it out yet. Hope it works well.

Have anybody made it work yet? I am trying to put it together myself, but I am temporarily stuck with configuring wifi, which works, but the configuration is lost after a reboot. However, I am more interested in positive (hopefully there are no negatives :D ) experiences, if anyone wants to share. Is it stable, how does the calibration work, and how good are the prints?
Thanks

Have you've gotten it to work? My biggest issue is the lack of support really for this product. I know its still a newish board but its been in development for at lest 2 years, i would think they could make this thing a lot more easy to set up. Im really about ready to give up on the bbb/replicape just seem like not enough info online, nor people using it to get good data on the board itself. Unless your a wiz with python, or no every single bit about codeing for these machines there's almost no way to get it to work. I guess I was bit over my head when i got into this project but everyday it just seems like i pored money into a project that might be ready for the public.
