Thank you for the compliment! I'm going to use a BBP 1S from Kickstarter. My backup plan was a CRAMPS/BBB with machinekit. I designed to allow 4...
$35 with shipping - but even then only $5 more than an OB lead screw + nut. As noted previously, you do lose some Z travel though. All-in-all I...
Seems like you are giving up a lot of X travel in this config. Also, make sure you do your very best to minimize any belt offset from pulley to...
Already ordered my parts but came across these at a great price:...
After further review of auto bed leveling options, I have decided to incorporate this into my build: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:707392 All...
Your belt routing seems problematic in this configuration. Didn't your printed stepper mounts work as is? Couldn't you do the same thing by...
In your last gantry depiction (in post 9445) your side rails were vertical whereas this H bar rail appears to require horizontal side rails or...
Ok, hopefully this is the last edit. I realized that I didn't need the extra rail length for the spool holders and was able to reduce the number...
Guiliano, Did you see my mini (20mm) v-slot gantry plate configuration? Have you worked on a similar floating carriage adaptation? Are you...
Here is my current BOM
Where does your twin Z stepper bias come from? Are you aware of a specific problem? I actually went through two design iterations with both...
How is the mass any more than it would be with a 400mm aluminum plate, heater, and additional glass or bakelite plate? In fact, I am certain it...
Do you mean you think that it is easier to attach the hot end to the new/current vertical gantry plate orientation? It is actually fairly easy in...
Ok, I think it's about time to stick a fork in it! I managed to further balance the CG of the X/Y gantry and after much entering review, I have...
Thanks. I'll definitely be paying close attention to the freedom of the extruder feed from the spools.
What do you mean by overconstrained? Binding issues? The wheels are there to limit Z axis wobble. Are you suggesting a triple lead screw with...
For those that saw the earlier design, I moved the extruders to the gantry to minimize bowden tubed length. This will also add to inertial mass...
TomH published a new build: Use of V-Slot for frame and rails with option to use identical 500mm uncut lengths: 8 * 20x60 x 500mm 8 * 20x40 x...
Forking to a new thread to not interfere with Guiliano's build: http://www.openbuilds.com/threads/h-bot-corexy-cube-with-fixed-build-plate.1528/
Forking to a new thread... Here is my current design. I think it is finally almost complete. I just need to align all the parts to make sure...
