+Peter van der Walt 4 kids. I have been teached how not to sleep

This is called a 3D Printer !!

@Ariel_Yahni_UniKpty how much did this build cost you total? Also what size prints can you manage?

David_Bassetti · February 13, 2016, 9:53am

I love the Z axis…!!!

Ariel_Yahni_UniKpty · February 13, 2016, 12:41pm

@Matthew_Lord_Drachen this build could be around 800 - 1000. Bed size is 12x12 and Z is almost 24"

Ariel_Yahni_UniKpty · February 13, 2016, 1:29pm

I made the structure so I could one day squish a 16" bed

Jarrid_Kerns · February 13, 2016, 4:29pm

I was thinking you could certainly fit a bigger bed. It was tough to tell the size, 12x12 isn’t bad at all. having any issues with the long screws?

+Peter van der Walt I have 2x600 and one x800mm silicon beds… but I’m in Spain…!!
Also two lead-screws wont hold the weight

Grady_Parker · February 13, 2016, 11:35pm

How much play do you have with the lead screws not connected on top. Seams like it would have a lot of swing in it

Michael_Scholtz · February 14, 2016, 5:29pm

@Grady_Parker in the contrary connecting them at the top will constrain them and cause problems. usually with Z banding.

Ariel_Yahni_UniKpty · February 14, 2016, 5:52pm

@Michael_Scholtz what would you suggest?

Jarrid_Kerns · February 15, 2016, 12:01am

@Michael_Scholtz due to vibration?
