    Every time my dining room table becomes a workbench my couch becomes a bed.

    jptheripper did all the code. It's based off the the original G-Code project with the Oled display added and lots of bug fixes.

    As with all protypes nothing is perfect the first time. There was a little bit of an issue with the position of the Oled display.



    With a little bit of "dirty engineering" I was able to reposition the Oled board on the first prototype.





    A couple other tweaks and we have a very usable board.



    And of course what everyone wants to see



    jptheripper has already fixed the oled position for the next version of the board.

    Reverse current protection?

    Is this the same as reverse voltage from the solenoid? Just trying to understand what you're getting at.

    edit - Your schematic in the first page seems to have a Schottky already placed to handle this.
