Working Notes
Project Lead(s): swighton et. al. Wiki-maintainers and helpers:
Note
Metal/Mendel is cross-fertile with Eiffel and is probably part RBS. It's one big whirling gyre of intercompatible design concepts. Forum thread: http://dev.forums.reprap.org/read.php?4,29852,29852
Files
Drawings
The files in Mendel_Drawings.zip are a bunch of pdfs. We need to render the pdfs as .png type image files (using image magick or pdftk?) and embed them in a series of pages. E.g. x_axis_belt_clamp.pdf is a pdf in the zip, we need x_axis_belt_clamp.png, and then either have Mendel/Drawings be one long image dump or have it be a list of pages like: Mendel/x_axis_belt_clamp
Units!
Inches
Note: swighton's original drawings are in Inches.
Metric
We will want a translation into metric for people using metric tooling.
Tooling
Description of tooling requirements.
Process
What is making the part like?
Notes
Swighton's got a pretty good writeup, so he'll probably just copy it here.
