/* Progression */
* 2014/01/30 - A more polished version of the metal parts will be made by [[User:noskill]]'s school polymecanics. The heated part and the nozzle will be removable.
* 2014/03/10 - Received the stepper motor and the arduino motor shield. Now the mechanics will make a first prototype of the machine in a few days. Also tested the temperature sensor under "real" conditions (~200°c) and worked perfectly.
* 2014/04/01 - The prototype is done ! And it's not even an april April fools joke !* 2014/06/11 - The motor used is not powerful enough in the current setup. Next step is to try adding a screw trough the rotor to get more torque and eventually to buy a new motor (DC, stepper ?).
