Requirements
- A portable, high performance machine
- Performance is defined as plug-and-play stability, and high print quality, in all materials
- Uses high temperature, 3 mm extruder, opimized for both fast printing (E3D Volcano Nozzle) as well as flexible filaments (short and supported extrusion distance)
- Easy to source parts
- 3D printable frame that still allows for high stability
- Stability of 3D printed frame may be assured via mini rebar plus concrete inside the pipes if needed
- 8" bed for minimum viable product
- extensible to 12" bed after 8" version is optimized
- Includes a full Design Guide
- Includes a FreeCAD workbench for design.
- Has well-developed cable management
- Has quick exchange toolheads via magnetic mount and complete unpluggability of print head using a single connector.
Concepts
- Double Connector may be used with a 6 or 12-pair cable
- Gauge 22 Wire Ampacity is 5A enclosed, so it is suitable. It is 2.5A with 4-6 cores.
- DIY Cat5 splitter -[1]
