Challenge - chap 3D printer

tada9

Hi Ben,

I have a chalange for you.

Try to build the cheapest possible 3D printer by hand with no use of CNC or 3D printer.

It should be based on Raspberry PI(another chalange?) becouse it is cheaper than Arduino.

  • There are a couple of printers out there for under $300, example the printrbot simple, comes as a kit for $299. It only prints pla since it doesn't have a hotbed, as it comes... If you really want a good print quality you are going to have to spend some $$$, I understand the challenge part, I also tried looking for ways to do a printer without spending too much, ended up spending double just because the individual parts cost more than a full kit...
