My Next Obsession

I have been feeling the bug for a new project, and I think I have one.  I think I would like to build my own 3d-printer based on the design found here.

The Cherry 60 Euro 3D Printer is a very simple design that lends itself to being relatively easy to build and very low cost.  The speed will certainly be the most limiting factor.  It uses very cheap 28BYJ-48 stepper motors, which are slow and don't provide as much torque as a Nema 17 stepper motor.

But they are cheap, easy to find and can be hacked for better performance.  Which leads me to my main goals for this project.

1. Inexpensive (Under $100)
2. Easy To Build
3. Functional

So stick around, as I will try to document the process here.  More to come.
