Sunday Quickie

Hey folks, here are the bits:

  • I have added the PCB files to the cone mech section of the design repo. Currently, standalone Eagle, and Fusion board and schematic files are uploaded. The plan is to move to KiCAD for all PCB work but there is no ETA for that yet.

  • I had aluminum support plates fabricated for the updated weight sensor design. They shipped on Friday and should be here Monday or Tuesday. These plates will be used for the cone mech weight sensors as well, further streamlining assembly and minimizing unique part counts.

  • Next design section to go up will be the spout mechanism. Very good chance it will be up tonight, if not, tomorrow.

  • I’m working on getting the licensing uploaded to the repos as well as the contribution agreement up. Most folks will not contribute improvements until these requirements are met, so it is high priority.

  • I’m all in on testing and assembly now and currently putting the frontend through its paces on production hardware. I’m also logging any required/incomplete config work for the underlying Pi os.

  • Later tonight I’ll be working to finish up any remaining todo items in order to open up Cloud Control for testing.

That’s all for right now. There will be a mid-week update going out on Wednesday night.

Thanks!
