Progress on the RepRap has slowed to a crawl and it's really bumming me out. Building from kits is SO much easier than sourcing the parts yourself. I've probably gotten the final cost estimate into the $600-$700 range by now. Anyway, I need your help. I just need to print out the new X-carriage, get some M3x25mm bolts, buy some MDF for the Y-stage, and get a hot end. However, I don't really know what to get. What are the recommended dimensions for the Y-stage (LM8UU bearings)? What's the best...| Cyrozap's Tech Projects

Talk about the gift that keeps on giving! :) However, there were some problems I noticed: - Thermistor read wrong temps—ABS now likes to melt at 200C - Solder joints on power resistors melt partially when running at 200C - Th...| Cyrozap's Tech Projects
Well, I just bought some new parts for my Makerbot. First, because my build platform broke, I bought the MakerBot Heated Build Platform Kit.

I got 3 samples of the chip a while ago, so I just bought this because it may come in handy ...| Cyrozap's Tech Projects
