This is the version 3 branch of the Hangprinter repository. Version 3 has been superseeded by version 4, and there's no development on this branch anymore.
This document and this repo are solely about technical aspects of Hangprinter version 3. For more general information about the Hangprinter Project, refer to hangprinter.org.

Then you need different sized motor brackets, extruder holders and motor gears. To compile those do
make nema23
This compiles the files and puts them in the openscad_stl_nema23/ directory.
It also creates the layout_nema23.dxf file.
To make a 2d-printable pdf of the layout, do
make layout_nema23_a4.pdf
You can wedge that into the make-calls, like
make layout_letter.pdf
The following works if you're using nema23:
make layout_nema23_letter.pdf
The pdf creation command has been tested on a Ubuntu 14.04 system with Cairosvg v1.0.4, sed v4.2.2, and Ghostscript v9.10.
Your design improvements will help the rest of the community if you build your machine according to the files and instructions found in this repo. The maintainers (me) are super grateful if you can structure your improvement into a merge request, and submit it to this repo on Gitlab.
The second best option is to make an issue here on Gitlab.
