CRAMPS V2.1

I finally got around to finishing the updated version of the CRAMPS board.  This version focused on simplifying the design as much as possible, and I really like the end result.  It feels much closer to the original RAMPS for the Arduino Mega in spirit than the previous 1.0 version and the RAMPS-FD.

Changes in this version include:

• No fine-pitch surface mount parts, so the board is much easier to hand assemble
• No servo outputs
• SPI expansion header changed to allow use as extra GPIO if needed
• Expansion headers modified to support an additional 3-axis add-on board (the CRAMP3)

The design files remain on github, and the home page for the design is still the CRAMPS page on the RepRap wiki.  A BOM file including Mouser and Digi-Key part numbers is also available via Google docs.  The boards  have been ordered, and should arrive before the end of May.

While the design is fully open, not everyone wants to build their own boards from scratch.  I am working on getting someone to build and sell completed boards, so stay tuned for updates!

UPDATE: 2014.05.12 - The first batch of 20 boards has shipped, now the 0-30 day wait for a "registered air parcel" begins.
