Assembling the Ponoko RepRap Extruder
UNDER CONSTRUCTION
Construction and assembly of the Extruder is quite demanding. There is a 3mm hole to be bored straight down a 40mm long rod, a 0.5mm hole to be drilled and some rudimentary lathing to be done. If you have a smattering of DIY skills, you should be able to accomplish this with a power drill and a few nifty tricks. If not feeling quite up to the challenge and unable to find a helpful person with a lathe nearby, buy the bits from the RRRF, Diamond Age, or BitsFromBytes.
Start by finding the components and fastenings as shown. Er, right. Better take a photo of that hadn't I?
Put them all together.
The final extruder all ready to plug in.
