I just finished building my new H-bot 3D printer.
Designing enclosure was great challenge for me, and I come to know it is very difficult to design stylish cases without enough experiences. This time, I just wanted to build robust and solid printer. It is not perfect aesthetically, but quite good for me.
Now it is time for ignite engine.

Recently, I managed to assemble my new 3D printer.
It has H-bot style cartesian plane and made of all anodized aluminum.
It is simple, not unique design, I got design idea over many well known printers as reference.
Though it is not fully tested yet, I’d like enjoy the moment of achievement now.
Even I spent some months in design, I can see many things that has to be changed or improved. Hotend carrier together with belt tension mechanism needs to be improved, maybe closed timing belt is a good option. And need to find smart and neat design to attach heated bed, also possible use of ribbon cables.
Anyway, this is first 3D printer that has ‘machine-like’ look. though 3rd printer I designed.
Dimensions: 320(W) X 284(D) X 405(H)
Build volume: 150 X 150 X 150
