This is the project files for our Starship Rocket. Our goal is to make our starship rocket is to create a model rocket based on SpaceX's Starship. To achive this goal our rocket will include:
- Star ship Model Rocket
- TVC fins
- Ability to land

The following is a breakdown of the different folders and the files contained in them:
-
FUSION 360 POST PROCESSOR
- JenkinsCNCReprap.cps
A post processor is the link between the CAM system and your CNC machine. The Post Processor translated the CAM instruction including information like the toolpath data, the type of operation, and the desired spindle feeds/speeds into the language that a CNC machine understands (gcode). Despite the fact that the DUET 3 runs RepRap Firmware, the standard RepRap post processor do not work for CNC machining. Our Custom post processor is based on the default RepRap post processor but fixes the gcode syntax errors and adds many additional modular features.
Directions:
- Uploading file to Fusion 360 Cloud Storage [Personal-cloud] With-in Fusion 360 open the project navigation panel. Under Libraries select "Assets", then select folder "CAMPosts" (if no folder exist then create one.) Upload the custom Post Processor within this folder for cloud storage.
- Create NC Program After creating your CAD model select the "Manufacturing Tab" in Fusion 360. Complete the "Setup" process and the desired toolpaths. Create a new "NC Program". Under "Post Configuration / Library" specify the location of the Post Processor File [personal-cloud recommended]. Under Post specify the desired file "Jenkins CNC RepRap". Adjust Post Properties if desired, then export gcode.

Directions:
-
GCODE
-
SDCARD This folder contains a copy of all they files located on our Duet 3 Motherboard SD Card. The system drive contains multiple subfolders each containing different gcode / system files. Before Copying/referencing our custom files it is best to upgrade the stock firmware and system files. The official Duet 3 releases can be found on GitHub. RepRap Files.
-
Macros The Macro folder contains all the additional system files needed for the Duet 3. Files are grouped by their function. Directions:
- Upload any of the desired files. Then review the files and make any necessary adjustment to the position points and the probe/sensors numbers.
-
Sys The System folder contains all the important system files needed for the Duet 3. Each file serves as important gcode files that configures the machine and provide necessary gcode for specific processes like tool changes. Directions:
- For AutoTool Change Upload the following files: TFree, Tpost, Tpre, ToolZProbe
- For manual tool Change Upload the following files: manualtoolchange, ToolZProbe,
-
-
GH Pages
- Files used for Github Pages and readme text file.
-
MANUALS
- Post Processor Training Guide
- The reference file for fusion 360 post proccessor. Contains reference material for different hadware apart of the CNC.
- Post Processor Training Guide
Note: Updating the RepRap firmware should be done carefully. Uploading the updated ZIP file could erase custom gcode files.
