BfB Axon

Introduction

Axon BfB is a free frontend for Skeinforge made by Bits from Bytes.

Main operations are fairly simple:

In the main tab

• Open the STL file
• Select your printer in the Type pulldown menu, e.g. RapMan single
• Select the plastic in the Profile pulldown menu, e.g. ABS, ABS/PLA or PLA
• Click on Build (wait ... this can last several minutes)
• Go back to the main tab and click on Download to SD card (save with a *.bfb extension and a file name no longer than 8 chars!)

Here are two screen shots:
