Openbuilds sells aluminum spacers and low profile bolts of varying lengths that would reach out past the 40x20 extrusion with a nut on the outside...
It looks like, in that design, that the green beams would also need to be cut exactly correct as the ends screw into the mount holes in the...
Glad the Slic3r trick worked for you. Also, there is always the https://netfabb.azurewebsites.net/ repair if Slic3r can't fix it. You need a...
Carl, I know this is going to sound crazy, but I love the color blue for your printed objects. Where did you get it? I want to buy some.
Thank for the Cam Studio intro!!! I'm dnlding it now. I used to have a great tool for that but they quit supporting it. Cam Studio looks like just...
Kyo, something you might want to consider. Your two 20x20 extrusion uprights on each side - place them the right distance from each other (43mm...
I like the way you did the video Kyo. What software did you use for creating the video? As for stls or skps, it really doesn't make a difference...
Curious to see your motor mount for the x axis. I assume you are using a rank & pinion belt drive concept.
Just now opened your SKP. Thanks for that. Interesting how you plan the 4 corners of the z axis. :) Regarding your use of the V Slot Gantry...

The idea for this build was to compete with the QU-BD Revolution XL for speed and quality without the high cost and deafening sound of it's linear...
Printing on my own design BldrBot. It is listed on this OpenBuilds as build under Cartesian. I downloaded your STL files, imported them into...
Carl - thanks for posting the thingiverse files for the bowden extruder setup. I printed them last night. Awesome. I want to change over to bowden...
Reg the Core Z. I had a Fabbster (since cannibalized it). It has a motor on each side that ran a belt on each side to lift the X carriage....
Considering that the X axis is a 40x20 and the Y axis combined is also 40x20 I think it should be able to deliver Z axis pressure for milling....
