Re: Any good summer electrical projects?

all thoes are fun projects, but i dont know how far you are in your electronics expertice, but this is my project and i need help (see 3d printer help) but in gereral i am makeing a 3d printer based off the RepRap project (reprap.org) so if you are looking for something kit and direction based it will run you about $500 to get a desktop 3d printer. or you can do it the more complicated way and change everything untill you are a chicken with your head cut off trying to figure it out.

something that will help me and proboly alot of other people is a redesign of the Jaguar, improve the chips inside to accept 45 volts to run a motor at 44 volts. (its way above my level of knowlage but it is a challenging project and valuable)
