    The good:
    It transferred the end model just fine.

    The bad:
    It looks like it's just an stl body; there's no feature history, so editing the imported model doesn't work out too well. If you just...

    Yeah, just came back here to mention that upon further review, it *does* allow you to export in f3d (Fusion 360) format, which *does* keep the feature history. From here, I suppose my real concern...

    The problem you're going to run into with a lot of your ideas is simply power. The rPi Zero takes a 2A draw; if that's persistent, that's a *LOT* of power for a remote device; adding in cellular...

    IMO, it's still overkill. The rPi is going to take more power (which is already a concern) and you're looking at USB light controllers. What's wrong with a simple LED or two that blinks every 1/2...

    IMO, stop looking at a Rpi, way overkill for what you need. You'll still need power, but you should be able to do a lot better with something like a ESP8266 module and RFID device or Arduino,...

    Thanks for the reply Davros.



    I agree, if I don't control it, I don't really own it. This takes on a slightly different meaning with open source, but the idea is the same. If I can't get to a...

    Thoughts on what software to use?

    When talking about Open Source software, there's a few things to consider, one of them being "What software do I use?"... unfortunately, this is part of where I'm getting stuck. In some cases, such...

    You can edit the stl in that you can union / diff the object, but IIRC, the stl lacks the actual vertices. So, if you wanted to add a cube to the side of the hopper, no problem. But if you want to...
