Case Scenario

  • When it's important to understand how a 3D printer works.
  • For maximizing learning objectives, not build experience
  • Here's the few things ppl would build to get xp with understanding how the printer works.
  • Estimated time saved: -4 axes, -soldering, -some control panel loop ties, -mini-asembly of extruder

Axis: (add completed)

 * touch motor + drive pully
 * build idler
 * tension belt

Heated Bed:

 * add therminster, 

Control Panel:

 * connect arduino to ramps board
 * Connect power supply
 * thermister, 

Extruder:

 * assemble completed elements to make extruder
 * add fan
 * add sensor

Assembly:

 * put on the x-axis
 * hook up the x-axis
 * connect arduino to control panel
 * connect extruder thermister, heating element, motor
 * print

Base Budget

  • Frame 1 hr
  • Axes - 30 min x 5 = 2.5 hrs
  • Control panel - 1.5 hrs
  • Extruder - 45 min
  • Heat Bed - 45 min

Total: 6.5 hours

Plus Budget

  • Print 1hr
  • Clean cables 1hr

Basic Scenario for a Mechanical Build

  • Axes build - 2.5 hours - then assemble everything.
