Hello everyone , I hope i'm posting in the right category? if not, I will move this thread where it needs to be . I submitted ( a little everywhere) a new reprap design i'm working on for some months now. I've been very silent about that until now , but i'm a relatively long time builder now ( 3 years ago was my first repstrap in wood, tape and glue gun everywhere :) . A page in reprap.org is setup here , a github is just started and a thingiverse thing is up too . The main goal of this project is to try to have an educative, easy to build ( i mean it) and unbuild! , real reprap in the spirit of what reprappro guys are doing ( gpl, full source and doc everywhere, open to any business ). So this printer will certainly not be the top notch , best printing quality or speed you're ever seen before . It's not the purpose , but it will be adapted to a home use for discovering and playing with all kind of experiments with 3d printing. For that , all the structure is printed , no special tool or ultra precision work is need. The main idea was to use the weight of the nema17 motors and build the structure around. I'm quiet happy with this first publishable version and it works even better than expected. The final goal is not reached for now, but i hope , with some work and interest by the community , it could be a great new base for a "real" reprap, doable by anyone at home. I will follow up with more informations and pictures ( videos too ) here , Thank you Serge (smartfriendz) https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?152,265316,265316#msg-265316 Sun, 11 Oct 2026 17:11:10 -0400 Phorum 5.2.23 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?152,265316,327456#msg-327456 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?152,265316,327456#msg-327456 n.glasson General New Machines Topics Thu, 20 Mar 2014 01:38:46 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?152,265316,304279#msg-304279 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?152,265316,304279#msg-304279
Smartrap is a fantastic printer
Does anyone know where I can find some of this printer software and wiring diagrams

Kind regards]]> Sembot General New Machines Topics Sat, 01 Feb 2014 04:19:52 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?152,265316,271637#msg-271637 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?152,265316,271637#msg-271637

Thank you,

Just to say there was some videos already but couldn't share it here ( youtube problem here ? ).

I've posted a vimeo video of the last assembled version :

We are version 0.4 now and the design should only be updated with "make-life-easier" things.

thanks,
