Dude, I'm not rich. I was thinking more like $5 per motor, haha.
Dude you could put anti-wobble technology at the top like they do in skyscrapers. I bet you could even 3d print a part and stick ball bearings in...
I think a threaded rod would have a lot of inertia. The only way to reduce the inertia is to put the motor in a fixed mount at the end of the axis...
OIC, well since I'm going to make the routy an inkplotter to get it tested and trued, I'll just make a decent mount for the pens and swap it out...
Well if all goes according to plan, I could take some trash and cnc it into an airplane, then pull the motor off my cnc and use it as a dremel to...
Also, about matching the motor, controller, and supply voltage: I noticed someone said they run theirs at 12V with no problems... Well the ESC...
OK, it's a total suicide mission to make a controller. I found some 80A ESC with a bunch of bells and whistles for $17 and I paid $40 for the...
Hey I already started this build and I'm looking for an 80A ESC but can't find one... Are they really that hard to make? I have a bunch of high...
I guess it depends on the materials you get. The machines have some variance in the production line but if you got 2 pieces made by the same...
Well I've heard of people running m8 threaded rod down the center of T-slot extruded aluminum for support... I don't think it works as intended....
Does the top wobble back and forth?
So does this require a 3D printer to make the parts?
Don't build a delta as your first 3D printer. They do look cool though :cool: My understanding is that you need a whole mess of custom 3D printed...
yeah but you can get a 6ft bike chain for $4, hehe.
what would be a good breakout board for running a nema23 off the smoothieboard? What are those things anyway? Like 10A?
I'd like to see openbuilds make some 3m v-slot so we can all make these without headaches. Putting a joint in the middle of a beam weakens it...
WARNING: I just found out that BlenderCAM is not available for the latest version of Blender(2.66). The project appears to be dead. Since I'm...
Windows, Linux and Mac Gnu Electronics Design Automation (gEDA) is an open source collection of graphical user interfaces to do things like:...
Found one http://makergeeks.com/co3dfi.html Apparently it's not the carbomorph filament which is what I'm looking for. Carbomorph has a...
You'd need some way to dispense the paint. Is it just me or is that just black carbon? I mean do we really need to be paying premium prices for...
