I haven't seen any updates here or on the wiki for a while. Also, are there any groups in the U.S. currently working on it? I'd like to get in touch if so. https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?215,764143,764143#msg-764143 Tue, 13 Oct 2026 20:35:58 -0400 Phorum 5.2.23 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?215,764143,777464#msg-777464 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?215,764143,777464#msg-777464
So far though the project sound awesome, I look forward to being able to print mechanical parts one day :D.]]> Crigon MetalicaRap Mon, 10 Jul 2017 19:03:26 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?215,764143,775489#msg-775489 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?215,764143,775489#msg-775489
I would be keen to put one together if the design is good.

My lab psu died recently :(


And the new coils. does that mean you've fired some up?

I'm half keen on putting together the gun layout you have, its nice with the coils on the outside. Would you recommend it as is? or should I do some math on it to double check what's happening?]]> pyrotronics MetalicaRap Thu, 29 Jun 2017 06:12:30 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?215,764143,774504#msg-774504 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?215,764143,774504#msg-774504
We have added some more flanges to the electron gun. So you can build the gun sections.


In file and parts section new assemble "assemble301.zip"
Notes for the above,
Modular design implemented through multiple flange connection in gun, Magnetic Lens 1 and Lens 2 are now designed for ease of manufacturer (Part numbers for lenses is coming in next upload) available when .stp file is unziped and opened in FreeCAD. NOW READY FOR BUILDING - using standard part for cross c-0600-450 Lesker

Powersupply development going well , manufacturing of parts continues.
