Introduction

The Onyx is a round PCB heated bed for RepRap 3D printers. Designed for SeeMeCNC's Rostock MAX, the bed is also useful for other printers too. The bed has spiral traces and draws around 10A current.

The outside diameter is 310mm. The six mounting holes are 3.85mm diameter for 2~3mm size screws. It is preferred to countersink the six holes and use flat head machine screws for mounting. 4-40 screw size also works good with mounting the bed.

The electrical connections provided are 12VDC +/-, thermistor, and LED with resistor. It is recommended to solder all connections on the bottom of the Onyx. This
