Hey guys, I recently posted this on reddit and im sharing our design here as well :) I've been lurking various 3D printing forums and reddit for a while and as a result ive picked up a lot of knowledge from you guys. So i just wanted to say thanks. I’m really excited to share a build that i've been working on with a friend of mine who has been doing DIY 3D printers for a while now. We wanted to build a really clean looking SLA printer that we could put on our desktop. We just got all the components of our BOM together this weekend and built it up. Here are some pictures of the latest prototype. Really proud of how printer and the prints turned out! :) Completed Build [attachment 87112 IMG_20161201_212736_compressed.jpg] [attachment 87113 IMG_20161106_150952_Ink_LI_compressed.jpg] [attachment 87114 IMG_20161106_151959_compressed.jpg] [attachment 87115 IMG_20161110_220207_compressed.jpg] [attachment 87116 IMG_20161110_210320_compressed.jpg] [attachment 87117 IMG_20161110_225949_compressed.jpg] [attachment 87118 IMG_20161206_212338_compressed.jpg] [attachment 87119 20161024_072053.jpg] [attachment 87120 IMG_1501.jpg] [attachment 87121 IMG_1504.jpg] Let us know what you think.

A friend of mine who has been doing DIY printing for a while now helped me with this project.

Yes we are using mirror galvonometers: [www.ebay.com]

The laser diameter is around .7mm

Here is an update post that has more pictures and describes how it works: [forums.reprap.org]]]> Gr3ymatter Look what I made!

As you haven’t released much information I have a few questions especially on the laser part. Are you using galvos or do you physically move the diode?
If you are using galvos do you have an F-theta lens or other mechanics for beam focusing? What is your beam size?]]> Demos Look what I made! Thu, 08 Dec 2016 06:48:55 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?166,728905,728905#msg-728905 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?166,728905,728905#msg-728905
