I found one here  http://www.makerfarm.com/index.php/prin … ivers.html

We got ours from there also - very nice to deal with, too. Guy was answering emails at 8pm on a Saturday night.

the have rececntly added some new stuff, too, including the 8825 stepper drivers (did not have them when we ordered)

SD Side  -> Bulldog Side
BLUE -> BLUE
RED -> YELLOW
GREEN -> RED
BLACK -> BLACK

Remember, solidoodle connect the extruder motor 'backwards' which means its not plugged in the same as all the other steppers... so if it behaves 'backwards', rotate the connector on the control board.

Pic that might help:

so is Bulldog Black really Brown? just saw Ward said Brown but this says Black. also does the Rumba board work with Duel extruders?

That's the one I'm ordering... just mounting bulldog  it fits but took some tweaking.

What wires go where on the bulldog? I used to have blue red green black.  the bulldog came with blue red yellow and brown???

I use a rumba on my OrdBot. .. I was a big fan of ramps but the Rumba is a lot better.. more mosfets, better tracks for high current, better power arrangements. In short... I won't be doing RAMPS again over a Rumba.

I also am happy to pay the 25-30 shipping, as it's FedEx and I get it in 3 days

So its worth the token extra over standard post.

Anyway, just my thoughts from a guy with way too many controller boards.

I think I am convinced does this look like the one I want?

I use ramps because it is what was on sale. It also has room for dual extruders if I ever get around to it.  Azteeg X3 and rumba are very nice boards. They offer support for more features than can fit into a solidoodle frame. The ramps boards are being built by everyone and their brother. It is worth spending a couple extra bucks and getting one from the online stores as opposed to eBay. I decided to stick with my ramps after having an incident involving a power wire that came loose. My new build will be moving to a rumba or X3. All three boards will suit whatever you want to do with your solidoodle.

By the way Thank You for coming up with the mount for the bulldog XL Printed just perfectly.  I'd Like to get that installed Tonight if I have time.

Sweet, which mount are you using.

As far as the new board goes, I won't know until I am ready foe my next build.

It is always easier for me to just let you make the big decisions.
