HICTOP 3DP-11 3D printer firmware source code

Well, since I never got around to doing the 24V bed upgrade, and since I really wanted to get a bigger/better machine,  I donated the Hictop to my local maker space, replacing an ancient wobbly reprap mendel.  One of the members there, Forrest, who is awesome with 3d printers, tweaked the PSU and firmware so that the bed heats up quicker. 

Update:  Discovered that the bed doesn't stay within the required temperature if ambient is low or there's even a slight breeze.   I'm going to upgrade the bed heater to use 24V. This involves adding a 24V PSU,  a MOSFET, and rerouting some of the associated wiring.  Also, on the advice of my 3D printer hacker friend Jason, I am upgrading to heavier bed springs and Z axis bearings.  

So that's the plan, but don't have a schedule yet, sorry. Like everybody, I have too many other things going on that compete for time. Follow if you're interested!
