Day three: mechanically there, except for the hot end which will be done alongside electronics and wiring.
Next time it’s soldering fun fun fun
Looks great, did you get a kit or mill the brackets yourself?
Nice. Monitors the state. I had some problems at this stage, but I forgot. Nothing major. Perhaps stop switch on the Z axis. Collided with the Z truck.
Hi! I have a 3Drag too.
I assemmbled it in 1 day… From 10 a.m. to 4 a.m. of the next day. 
…when you’ll solder bed/extruder cable, use a 1,5 mm2 cable…and don’t solder 5 smaller cable as the guide say!
It’s a fantastic 3d printer… Next days I’ll upgrate it as pbc CNC… Have you ever watch this upgrade?
And be very careful assembling the extruder! 
I hope it works ok, but that is just about the most ass backwards printer design I’ve ever seen.
@Billy_Vaughn : it’s my First 3D printer build, so I decided to start small and use a readily available kit.
@marco_grasselli : I thought about making the extruder head swappable with a small rotary tool holder so I can use it as a pcb drilling and engraving machine. Thing is that I already have one of those sitting in my parent’s garage that I never use these days anymore.
I’ll take good cation when assembling the hot end, thanks for the hint.
@scott_maher : I agree, it’s not a very good design in terms of volume efficiency, but that’s not important to me right now. I just want to get started in 3D printing and do some experimenting with motor driver control algorithms.
You’ll have fun either way. I’m sure it will work well enough for you print parts for a prusa i3 or one of the other and well tested designs. Welcome to the party.
what kit is that ? I plan to upgrade (rebuild) my Prusa Mendel XL , need something with at least 23x23cm.
@Andre_Kjellstrup it’s a K8200 from vellemann, but it can also be found under the name 3Drag
