what fuse holder did you use? I want to use something like that auto blade fuse for a project I'm working on. Is it in the eagle library?

Just noticed that the Printrboard electronics are for sale/preorder on RepRap USA. Their website is showing RevC shipping in late April http://www.reprap-usa.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=58

The boards on Printrbot are showing RevB http://printrbot.com/shop/printrboard-electronics/

Printrboard Wiki http://reprap.org/wiki/Printrboard Also showing RevB

People on the #reprap IRC channel are not liking the positioning of the MOSFETs on the Printrboard. Also, apparently the MOSFET specified in the Eagle file is inadequate to actually handle the current for a heated bed. No information if that is actually corrected on the real board. Caveat emptor.

This post started with this board http://reprap.org/wiki/Azteeg_X1

The Printrboard is something different. If you want to keep talking about the Printrboard, please start a new post. Issues with one design might be confused with the other. It took me a second to figure that out.

Just an update for those waiting.

First few boards will be shipping out tomorrow and the rest by next week(Tuesday) as I get more boards. There are some component(Fuses and connectors) delays but everything looks well and good at this point.

Thanks.

Sweet, this board should arrive at the same time as my Pololus and extruder so I can test it out!

Just another quick update.

Ive shipped the first 15 of the pre orders since Monday and the rest should be out by tomorrow. Testing and uploading firmware is still a slow process right now as my test jig isnt up to snuff yet. By end next week it will be a stocked item.

Thanks

Roy

@royco
I just pre-ordered one of your boards from panucatt.com

A question on the Pololu driver cards,
Its been stated that un-plugging a stepper motor from a Pololu with power on will "destroy" the chip.
1) Can the AZTEEG X1 with Pololu's mounted, be powered up without stepper motors connected.
2) Can the AZTEEG X1 with Pololu's mounted, be powered up, and then the stepper connected (but not disconnected later)
