More of a kitchen table project...
Last five months been building my first 3d printer on and off, basically so I can fabricate bits for the farm, bucket clamps, tractor plastic bits, new fence post insulators for the hotline metal ones which always snap..!
Just done my first test print yesterday, still need to refine it and sorry the picture are not brilliant. Trying with cheap PetG filament (intend to print mostly with PetG or Nylon).
Large bed size, 450 x 450 mm using a E3D Aero Titan hot end. Ramps 1.4 circuitry with Marlin firmware and will be plugged into OctoPrint (https://octoprint.org).
The most expensive single items where the aluminium extrusions, the printer extruder (plenty of cheap ones available though) and the 3mm borosilicate glass.
Cheers, James
