Need HELP Building 3D Printer

Former Member
Former Member over 10 years ago

Hi, Guys

 

I need help with building a 3d printer. I would like to know what parts I need and all the pieces of wood I will need. I would like to build a robot similar to the portable 3D printer on The Ben Heck Show. I tried navigating the file that there is to cut some of the parts but i seem to get lost quite easily so wondering if anyone has simpler file to cut the wood.

 

Please list the parts. It will be great if you can also give me links to thus parts.

 

Lastly i want the ai file to cut the wood.

 

Regards,

Yogi
