Something is coming

I hope you are all fine and healthy :)
I was waiting serious manufacturers coming with a quality and reliable control board and recently it is moving nicely from Duet side. They have announced few time ago the Duet 3 Mini 5+ which is very promising:
- 32b controller
- 5x TMC 2209
- External drivers capable
- External boards via CAN bus
- Can support two hotends
- 12/24V selectable for fans
- PanelDue or 12864 screens
- Etc
You can find more details about this board here:

- https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/The_Duet_family_of_motion_control_electronics
I will receive a pre-production model very soon and will be able to start working on the firmware and make it easy to use.
Let's move to 32 bits!

I was hopping to publish all the files today, including cover for the board, but I found a bug on one screw. I need a bit more time but should be quickly here.

I might have to try this soon... I've been eyeing the duet 3 mini 5+ for the mini education-focused printer I've been toying with the idea of... might be nice to test it on my Bear first though.

Absolutely, I have one thing to finish on the LCD cover but you can already use it like that. I have the board enclosure done too. I'll send them to you in private and once I have finished the LCD cover I will share it here to everybody.

I have one of these boards waiting to go onto the bear I am building. Do you have a recommended enclosure to print? I could spend time making my own, but I am lazy.
