This pendulum require a motor with a constant speed to winder your filament on a organize way

please enjoy. if anyone wants to do a modification i did uploaded the solidworks files.

I had his board made by OSHPark, but I haven't ordered up the components to put it together yet.  I'd also like to try out interfacing with a thickness gauge, but all of that has been waiting until I get all of the stuff done for the launch.

Both,

Thanks, keep up the good work!!!

Hi Tim,

I see the page also links to the filament width sensor that you said you were getting a test on of a while (IIRC).  Did you ever get to trying it out, it would be great if you were able to stock those as well if they work.  I see people seem to be buying direct form "flipper" via Thingiverse, but that's not so great for purchasing...

@Ian:  Good job, looking forward to assembling a complete system at last.

Thanks,
Craig

I'm curious what exactly is and what exactly is not included in the kit. For example is the nano included?

Mine came with everything except a base board to mount everything to and some kapton tape to mount the thermistor.  I needed a few extra washers to make everything fit properly, but that's not unexpected.

Price to benefit ratio is just too far off. I'll stick with my beta winder and hand winding my other extruders until a decent cheap clone pops up.

The FilaWinder will be available for sale starting tomorrow 1/1 at 12pmEST.  The lead time is one week for working out some last shipping details.  The page is online now at http://www.filastruder.com/products/filawinder.  Tim has made a promo code for free shipping to the US on the winder - FilaWinderFreeShipping.

I saw that at Maker Faire and it definitely was cool but it makes three foot long windings.

I feel like if the needed goal is enough to fit on a credit card or a small unsecured loan you should take the risk of non-completion on yourself rather than a bunch of strangers who think they are making preorders in a store.
