Yeah, well, that’s what happened to me.
Thanks to Steven, this problem was fixed in all of 30 seconds as I reformatted the SD card as a FAT 16!
How MakerBot Industries can help RepRap even more
Some people have suggested MakerBot is somehow stealing thunder from the RepRap project. 1 Here’s a super simple way every MakerBot sold could, in a very small way, help the RepRap project.
Why not put a copy of every Mendel part as an STL on the SD card that comes with the MakerBot? Actually, why not put Spacexula’s set of Mendel production STL’s?
This is a cheap and fast way to disseminate plans for RepRap files to people who are actually capable of making them.

On second thought…
After seeing the dramatic difference printing from the SD card made, I think I’ll try my hand at printing the replacement insulator retainer ring again. I think I’ll end up with a much better result on the small screw holes by doing this.
Sooo… if you break your acrylic (or ABS) insulator retainer ring, drop me a line.
New print: SD Card Blank!
SD Card Dummy
Totally unnecessary and arguably useless! It’s an SD Card blank!
I’m not entirely sure what the purpose of these things are, but that’s not really the point. Somewhere there’s someone that does nothing but churn these out day and night. And I’ve just broken their monopoly!
