Here is a picture of the new carriage which is much smaller than the old one:


would you mind to show, how you connect the X-rail to the Y-carriages? That's the thing noone wants to show :D

And I don't like Micro-printers, where all the bulky parts like motors are hanging on the outside of the frame. That's cheating :D]]> Skimmy General Mon, 23 Nov 2015 14:04:23 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,493300,579967#msg-579967 Re: List of Small 3D Printers https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,493300,579967#msg-579967 [www.kickstarter.com]]]> yaki General Wed, 04 Nov 2015 15:03:02 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,493300,579909#msg-579909 Re: List of Small 3D Printers https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,493300,579909#msg-579909

Here is the link so you can check it out:

Baby3D Kickstarter

He expects no problems with delivery as he already has built several functioning units and has backup suppliers. I am going to post this in the crowdfunding section too....

I have updated the small printer spreadsheet to reflect the new pricing, name and such:

Small Printer Comparison Spreadsheet

There are still some small printers that do not have information correctly shown. Anyone can modify this right now, so please add data that you know.....]]> patrickrio General Tue, 03 Nov 2015 13:48:00 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,493300,578370#msg-578370 Re: List of Small 3D Printers https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,493300,578370#msg-578370

No, it is a CoreXY. If you watch the video, you can see the 4 belt ends are attached to the carriage, which only works on CoreXY.

The belts cross in the back under the black cover, above where all the motors are.

I used 4 identical 78 oz in 0.9 degree stepper motors.

Very interesting! Good design.]]> TheZippyMan General Sat, 31 Oct 2015 11:24:24 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,493300,577899#msg-577899 Re: List of Small 3D Printers https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,493300,577899#msg-577899

I think you build is an HBot, no CoreXY, because I see no belts crossing. Which motors did you use?]]> TheZippyMan General Sat, 31 Oct 2015 09:16:36 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,493300,577729#msg-577729 Re: List of Small 3D Printers https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,493300,577729#msg-577729

Zippy, is your goal to make a small CoreXY printer????? if it is, you can make it much smaller I think. my CoreXY is 270x310x365mm in size and has a print volume of 200x200x260. I think you could make a pretty small CoreXY.

Yes I want a very small CoreXY. But my CAD skills are pretty bad. :D

Can you post some pics of yours so I can pick some ideas from it?]]> TheZippyMan General Fri, 30 Oct 2015 18:51:14 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,493300,577701#msg-577701 Re: List of Small 3D Printers https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,493300,577701#msg-577701 patrickrio General Fri, 30 Oct 2015 18:45:17 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,493300,577685#msg-577685 Re: List of Small 3D Printers https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,493300,577685#msg-577685 Here is my prototype (30cm x 26cm x 20cm) CoreXY printer.

He has his own lasercutter at home, so it is easy for him to do his prototyping. For production he would probably use a larger lasercutter to print faster with less waste.....

If he does a kickstarter, he will likely be willing to sell you laser printed parts too...

Get him to do the kickstarter! Those little printers are awesome!]]> TheZippyMan General Thu, 29 Oct 2015 19:08:30 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,493300,577205#msg-577205 Re: List of Small 3D Printers https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,493300,577205#msg-577205

I have a friend here in NYC who has been playing around with miniature 3D printers for a while. He is working on scale models of well known printers. Here is his blog which shows a Mini PrinterBot Simple, MiniMendelMax (MendelMini???), and a Mini Ultimaker.

minirap.com

His Mini PrinterBot Simple won first place at NYC MakerFaire this year, a few of his friends (me included) are trying to convince him to do a kickstarter for it. Here is a video:

What do you guys think????? I am not sure if it really is the worlds smallest printer, but that's what the AdaFruit reporter guy decided to call it.....

Oh, you can see my Candy Apple CoreXY printer in the background of the video too....

Wow thats awesome! I would be interested in the lasercut parts...]]> TheZippyMan General Thu, 29 Oct 2015 14:16:05 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,493300,577068#msg-577068 Re: List of Small 3D Printers https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,493300,577068#msg-577068 madmike8 General Thu, 29 Oct 2015 11:40:56 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,493300,577057#msg-577057 Re: List of Small 3D Printers https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,493300,577057#msg-577057
