Hello Vadym, thanks for reaching out. I did in fact build a much larger version based on this design, learned quite a bit about its limitations:...
Hi there. I haven't worked on the Dash printer for quite some time. As long as you are comfortable with CAD you can adapt almost any hot...
This is an evolved version of Dash-X, previously submitted. Included here are an STP file of the main assembly, plus a zip file (Pack and Go) of...
Hi Shaun, thanks for reaching out. I don't see any problem with 20t vs 30t, you just change the calculated steps/mm. The reason for 4...
I used M5x25mm screws, this compensates for the buildup of thicknesses (plastic, wheel with bearings, washer).
Unfortunately the 3DExperience version (which I was using for a while) of Solidworks creates files that are not compatible with the Student...
I used the standard Delrin Mini V wheels, but the Xtreme wheels would work as well, possibly better. So far I've seen no wear after thousands of...
Really nice build! Looking forward to seeing more of what you can make/do with it. BTW, what kind of heated bed did you go with?
Thanks and good luck with the build. Let me know how it goes, please.
Very VERY nice looking build! So happy you've got it running, I'm curious how good the print quality is. Perhaps you could post a photo or two...
No problem. I just posted it in the "Files" area, will be live as soon as they approve it. BTW, you can get Solidworks for Makers for $100/yr....

I'm getting ready to post a major update to Dash-X, haven't decided whether to post it as a mod to this device, or copy it all with the changes to...
How exciting! Yes, Youtube is probably the best place to look for advice on Marlin settings. A quick search unearthed many good videos. Good luck!
I agree, the cross-beam design is a good choice for a bio-printer. I'd be surprised if one wasn't already in development somewhere. Wishing you...
Hi there. Sounds like you may have already solved the problem with the BLT mount. Sorry for the omission, I'm attaching it to this reply (too...
Hi Steve, I'm excited for you! There's nothing fundamentally wrong with using an 8x8 lead screw as long as you don't try to turn it too fast...
Hi there and thanks for the message. Dash-X represents one approach to improved rigidity and symmetry. It is however not the performance champ I...
