This is the documentation vertex for a 3D printer build run started in
|
||
|
|
July 2013.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Vital links and major log entries can be made here (by anyone, as
|
||
|
|
always). Detailed logs should be made either in a user's own log (which
|
||
|
|
should be linked from here). It'd be a good idea to consolidate what was
|
||
|
|
learned and place it on this page in the end.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Goal
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Get a few people together that want their own 3DP and build 'em.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The primary point is to get working, somewhat reliable machines running
|
||
|
|
in order to focus on using the printers. This may be a bit different
|
||
|
|
than many hackerspace builds that might focus on improving the 3DP
|
||
|
|
designs.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Plan
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. What model(s) to build?
|
||
|
|
2. Find mentors. People that can help when we get stuck or review what
|
||
|
|
we've done and suggest corrections.
|
||
|
|
3. Create BOM, aka parts list
|
||
|
|
1. Catalog what parts we already have at HacDC.
|
||
|
|
2. Find supplier(s) or kits for all other parts.
|
||
|
|
4. Set some form of gathering schedule or build timeline. (a little
|
||
|
|
structure is good)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Which model?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### Deltas
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Rostock / Max
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Kossel seems to be an improvement
|
||
|
|
- Kossel (original)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
obsolete
|
||
|
|
- Kossel Mini
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
current Kossel
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Looking at linear bearings / towers.. may need to pull something from
|
||
|
|
the OpenBeam version
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Note: 'Mini' is a misnomer, scale it as you like.
|
||
|
|
- OpenBeam Kossel Pro
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
in Kickstart phase
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
David's top pick but Terrance (openbeam guy) understandably hasn't
|
||
|
|
released a bom yet
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### Cartesian
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- i3
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
current Mendel design
|
||
|
|
- Mendel Max
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
larger, beam-styled Mendel
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### Biomechanical
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Simpson
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Uses only rotary bearings, like biological entities such as you
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Some design concerns; wear at base rotation points, accuracy on reel
|
||
|
|
drives
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Mentors / Guides
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Unbeknowst to them, considering asking Julia and/or mirage.
