3D Printer

3D Printer

I built a 3D printer back in 2011 when 3D printing at home was just beginning.

I started with a rough kit shipped from another maker that I improved in many ways. I added linear roller bearings for the rails, a chain to maintain cables, a holder for the plastic, a case with a fan for the electronics, and other parts to hold things in place. See photos and videos below.

This printer printed the first part of the Poppy project back in early 2012.
