First of all, thank you for your time helping to make Sawppy better!
This document outlines the current thinking on how to keep everyone's ideas organized. Since Sawppy is a physical piece of hardware, we can't always use what works for strictly software projects on Github. Ideas on how to improve the process are welcome: open an issue so we can discuss.
If you feel you can help make Sawppy's written documentation better, feel free to create a pull request against the relevant markdown files directly. We can discuss details within that pull request.
If you have an interesting modification for standard Sawppy, put it in
the modifications folder. Add a description and link to your modification
in modifications/README.md. If you would like to include some files as
well, create a subdirectory under modifications to hold your files. If you
aren't sure what to name that subdirectory, use your real or Github name.
It is recommended to include the following information:
- Motivation for why you designed it, and why someone might want it.
- Instructions for the modification
- Pictures to illustrate the modification
- (If applicable) CAD or 3D data for the modification.
If you see a problem but are not sure of the solution, feel free to open an issue to describe the problem. We'll do our best, but please keep in mind everyone here is working on their own time and there is no guarantee of a timely answer.
Sawppy is shared free of charge, but builders in the United States may choose to buy some parts via Amazon affiliate links which will send a small sales commission to Sawppy's creator.
