SD card ?

Anyone know if this can read gcode from an SD card or does it need to run from the PC ?

Also I'd appreciate any information from anyone who's got this to work on an actual machine

Sorry - was asknig a question on the port of the RepRap sprinter code. Reading through it I suspect that it is intendd to run witha PC connected to send the instructions to drive the 3d printer and hence is just interpretting g-code instructions. I'm wondering if it can be eaily adapted to use an SD card so that 3d printing can be achieved without needing the PC in the loop....

I'd look at Smoothie. It's a modular 3D printer, CNC, laser cutter driving board.
