Jkeegan 07:43, 7 November 2009 (UTC) - Referring to the Thermoplast Extruder Version 2.0 page for most of the instructions seems fine at first, but it does become a bit confusing once you've gone to the page and start looking at a bill of materials.. there's mention of pre-generation-3.0 electronics, for instance.. it took me at least a minute to realize that the PWM Driver 1.1, Stepper Motor Driver v2.3, and Thermocouple Sensor v1.0 were all unnecessary now that a generation 3 Extruder Controller board exists. Eventually the necessary (and only the necessary) pieces from the Thermoplast Extruder page should be duplicated/adapted into the Mendel extruder page (or alternatively, the Thermoplast Extruder page should be modified to make mention of which pieces to ignore/replace while building an extruder for Mendel).
