1 RAMPS board will be for the rinser/decanter. The other is used for the mixing the solutions to precipitate out the pigment. We will start with the mixer.

There is no specific way to set this up in the general sense. It is all connections with not much needing fabrication or modification. How one organizes this is all largely up to them. I minimized the difficulty of creating the system. The way we wound up mounting things was mostly due to the convenience of what was sitting around.

The areas needing extra work are the cutting the tubes. attaching a 110 AC plug to the DC 12V power apply, the mounting of the lathe motors and mixing container, and the assembly of the lathe motors. Nothing is precisely cut or measured.

Go ahead and go to http://coolpaint.org/gcode/calibration.zip and put the gcode on the memory card. These files are used to calibrate your system.
