Oh sorry. I meant "belt layouts" mainly for the Z axis to avoid multiple steppers. As for the endstops - I always wonder why people have them on...
Thanks for the quick replies guys. Guess it helps to stay up late at night in a totally different timezone ;). There have been a few remixes to...
Finally, I got through all the pages. Phew. Quick question that just came to my head while helping a friend build a Prusa I3 derivative: Besides...
Hm. I thought ghosting happens when there's unwanted movement between the place the plastic comes out and the place where it's supposed to go....
Hm. I thought it's the relative movement between the hot end and the build plate. If the build plate is fixed, but the hot end vibrates with...
What made you go for a moving gantry as Z instead of the build plate? Wouldn't this require longer bowden tubes so it can move up and down with...

The original Ox build uses http://openbuildspartstore.com/nema-23-stepper-motor/ which have a torque of 175 oz-in. If the calculator I've found is...
One thing I've noticed with Ox plates is the distance to the rail of the Y axis motor mount compared to the X axes. It's a lot higher. Is there a...
The only important length should be the three extrusions from the Y-Gantry, right? Z doesn't need to be squared and X should be adjustable...
Just for the heck of it I've asked a "local" aluminium extrusion company (yay, Google) what it would cost to create a bigger profile like a 40x60....
I'd like to second that request :). For now I don't understand half of what you wrote since I'm very new with all these parts, but I know I'd want...
Thanks for clearing that up, Dave. Can you perhaps take a few photos of your machine? :)
This short documentary is really beautiful and even if it is not directly Openbuilds related, I thought I'd share it. [MEDIA]
Can you upload the modified model or have @Sage add them to the ressource?
Let me rephrase that: Is it as stable as bolting the two slots together with screws? :-)
Please also make a video that shows us how it works :). Did you design the connectors yourself?
The plates on the top right look like multicopter arms? Sorry. I'm drifting off topic :)
I've just stumbled over this Instructable: http://www.instructables.com/id/Which-3D-software-should-I-learn-for-3D-printing/ I wonder why...
It would be nice to be able to buy beefier profiles like 60x60, 40x40 and 20x... wait - scratch the last one ;-). Is there a small chance that...
