Cherry Printer Update

Well after about a month of shopping online and waiting, I still have critical pieces of the printer missing for the build. :-(  The pieces I am talking about are the linear shafts and bearings. Everything else I have ready to go.

In the interim, I have taken to using SketchUp to plan the build as well as to use for illustrations for the build document.  Here are some sample shots of what I have mocked up so far...







There are certain aspects of the build that I need to keep as flexible as possible.
  • Varying Smooth Rod Lengths
  • Optional Z-Axis Frame for Better Bracing
  • Different Build Plate Sizes And Types
  • Different Bowden Extruders
