First job. As usual I can’t get Repetier Host to play nice with smoothie. So, LaserWeb2 to make the gcode (from an SVG), save, and Pronterface to send to the machine. I don’t like the UI much, but the communication and functionality is rock solid.

You could use Smoothie’s web interface instead of pronterface.
Also laserweb3 has support for talking to smoothie over network right ?

@Arthur_Wolf no ethernet on my mini smoothie in here. Need to get a dedicated computer in there before I go dealing with LW3, but yeah, Peter says that works.

Oh right sorry

All good. I haven’t publicized any details yet, so how could you have known? :slight_smile:

@raykholo ​ do you have and RPI?

LW3 rockzzzzz

Plenty of Pi @Ariel_Yahni_UniKpty , yes. But I would need a tv screen for it and wifi in that corner is very very bad.

You don’t need the TV, just run the node on the PI and then connect from another pc. No WiFi it’s a no go then

@Ariel_Yahni_UniKpty I just ordered one of these to see if my VGA monitors will be an option: http://s.aliexpress.com/RFFJfEzu

I also picked up a Pi 3 and Zero along with a lot of filament yesterday.

That should work
