What happens when you combine an enthusiastic maker learning electronics, a beloved Adventure Time character, and a need for a Raspberry Pi running an Octoprint server?? A whole lot of mayhem, it seems!
Watch me endeavour to tackle this meaty project to create my very own talking, life-size, 3D printer controlling BMO. I'll be using a Raspberry Pi 4, compatible components, 3D printing and design, and a whole lot of Python to achieve this goal. Many of these things I will be attempting for the first time, so expect some bumps and learning experiences along the way.
Part One will be covering the research and building of BMOctoprint's internals, including a custom PCB courtesy of @PCBWay! A huge thanks as well to @pimoroni for sponsoring this project and providing the electronics.
A huge thanks as well to Gina Häußge for creating and maintaining Octoprint, the incredible Raspberry Pi program that allows you to use and control your 3D printer from anywhere with an internet connection. I highly recommend it if you have a 3D printer, and please consider contributing to help keep the maintenance going!
