Hi everyone, My first post in the 3d printer section! I have been working on a design using nema 23 motors, since I can find models that have...
As an aside, does openbuilds offer custom parts? I might need an aluminium L bracket with slightly different dimensions from what is available on...
that reminds me of another thing I wanted to talk about actually! I have been reading that a smooth idler wheel is not ideal for belt driven...
