@liaizon oh, pretty neat!

@nlnet added some pics and documentation about the battery system https://source.mnt.re/reform/reform-next/-/blob/main/README.md?ref_type=heads#battery-system

@elly yes, this is a non standard configuration of the motherboard for development, because this way i can reach all the components easily. the normal configuration of the motherboard is upside down, and will conduct heat into the metal body.

@tirifto @nlnet it's round because i was poking myself on classic reform's corners on the sofa

waiting for filament (due tomorrow) so i can print the missing case parts :3

@chiefgyk3d @defcon it's coming. it's worked in first testing and the adapters are in production, around 3-4 weeks to go

crash. reload. spinning cursor. yawning hard. switching to browser. poasting a poast. switching back. click a button. spinning cursor. waiting. etc.

> TechDraw did not retrieve any geometry

@craftyjon ohh, neat

remember the maker movement, fab labs etc? :3

@manawyrm hmm that sounds like you converted it to a mesh in the first place... (from a solid)

it took several minutes of loading and waiting and cursor spinning and eating up all my ram to get to this techdraw view... (on an intel i9 9900k)

did someone already find a way to simplify KiCAD STEP models so that FreeCAD doesn't get incredibly slow under their load?

@left_adjoint kinda, on a311d you also need to download and copy the system image to a microsd card to get started

@kianryan ohh, thanks a lot for the info!

@pyoor i think @wakest has them
