Introduction
Updates
Weight vs length and vice-versa
Finding and testing the load sensor (scale sensor)
The filament roll scale design
Assembling the parts
Some structure improvements
Circuit and wiring
1. Power the system and initialise it (calculating the empty tare without the filament)
2. Place the filament roll and wait the weight stabilises
3. Start reading the usage (material load)
The project in action
The software
