Nice bit of modeling there, John.? Bet they took a while to print with those big flat areas.

Just treated myself to a Bambu x1 carbon.? Boy is it fast, you often can't see the print head move, it's just a blur.? There are two speed levels faster than the standard speed but I haven't dared try them yet!
Very nice printer if you are looking to upgrade.

Attached is a STL of the top part 2 parts of the circular table box.
Showing the typical wood makers male and female tenon approach.
I originally designed and printed the 4 parts? (STL only shows 2 parts) with the base?
not completely closed, This i did not like, as it allowed dust and dirt to get in, so I printed 4 inserts 4 mm thick and glued them in.
Now the circular table is fully protected unless we are flooded out. LOL
Hope of interest, again any questions please ask.

For anybody who has a 3D slicer program, I have attached a STL file of the jigsaw puzzle technique of connecting parts together in 3D printing
This example is a irregular shaped lid for a 150 mm dia milling circular table box.
The box was 200 mmm deep.
If you slicer programme is able to move the 4 parts individually then you will see that they all join up precisely.
The 4 parts were designed to become a "snap fit" together with a small amount of super glue on the straight edges.
My 3D printer has a max table of print area of 190 mm x 190 mm.
Hope of interest, any questions then please ask.
Please see photos in the file section.
Thanks

Can't see the file, John.? It's listed but doesn't show a file size.

Added to the FILES section a 3D printed box that holds my milling machine circular 150 mm dia table.
The handwheel is bolted through the centre hole for ease of loading and lifting the table out of the box.
from the photos you can zoon in and should see the methods of attaching the various parts together using the old technique of
tenon and jig saw male female approach. As my 3d printer has a max print of 190 mm x 190 mm, the box measures in?
the extremes 270 mm x 220 mm.

Was it a member here that bought one of the Rockettronics ELS ?

thanks

Welcome to new members.
We have at least 20 people joined this group within the last 5 months and NO posts as yet.
Hopefully there should? be something to discuss with hobbyist in this forum and please share or how can this group of members help.
The? digitalhobbyist protocol is it is necessary for the first post from a new member to be moderated, after that?
normally any on topic posts will be allowed through the system.
Best regards and a good New year.

Leslie,
Re your question, the I2C pins on the ATMega 2560 are pins 20 and 21. These are already used in the RELS to read the pulses from the encoder and are not available for communication with an I2C display. If the pins were available, the sketch would need to be changed to accommodate the different communications method.

Hi John thank you and Charlie for help. It turns out that the keypad was configured with the onboard SMD resistors and wired for? analogue inputs? ?which Charlie suggested earlier. I scraped off the SMD resistors and wired each switch directly.

I would like to clarify this point. What John says is completely accurate; you can mix metric and Imperial threading pitches. But you CANNOT mix metric and Imperial feed rates, As it states in the RELS_data_VX.XX.xls file, "Instruction" tab, row 24: "Only one Feed table is allowed in the TablesV4.h file!" The same is true for Version 5.

Hi Leslie and group.

I hope this schematic addition in the files section helps towards you resolving your current build issues.
For your interest I have in my current RELS " threading" section both Metric and Imperial screw cutting choices.
My lathe has metric leadscrews and all RELS menus work OK, I mention this as I read? you were concerned this mix of Metric/Imperial was maybe the cause of your non operative problems.
Through the last years I have added new tapers 1, 1.6, 2, 10,? 20,? 30.? 45, (MAX ANGLE)? degrees? and a vast selection of off the wall very fine thread pitches?needed
for my musical instrument repairs. The early Japanese musical instruments circa 1960?s that flooded the Western world countries and other household commodities using threads were?
not in conformity to the International Thread standards at that time. Now they use the ISO 965 which is the latest standards.
I believe the early Datsun circa 1960 -1975?s were a nightmare for finding replacement nuts bolts etc unless they were produced by Datsun. OE.

I have purposely not uploaded to the Files section my latest? V5 data or H files to include these additions.
These "add ons" can be easily?added on a "if needed basis" by the individual RELS users.

Cheers
John

Hi, John,

It looks like John Lindo beat me to it and the schematic has already been posted.

As a point of information, this schematic is not unique for Version 5, but is valid for all versions 3 and later, IIRC.

Hi, John,

"Any reason why these and other schematics aren’t posted in the files section of the groups.io site?"

Actually, I had thought that they were posted. I was surprised when Leslie asked for them. We will likely take care of it in the days to come. My priority was to help Leslie get his installation working.
