Hi,

I'm planning to build my first RepRap! Is there any other RepRaps in my town (Bendigo) or central Victoria?

I would like to source the printed parts (non-vitamins) to my Prusa Mendel build as locally as possible. The idea of having a baby of a nearby printer gives me a warm fuzzy feeling smiling smiley

Anyway, mainly wanted to introduce myself and say hi.

Cheers,
Corin

Hi Corin, welcome to the group.

I'm in Melbourne myself but I pass through Bendigo and back a few times a year on my way up north. My Mendel's not calibrated properly at the moment and I'm in the middle of a printrbot build so I won't be doing full prints for another month or two but if you get stuck and need an emergency piece printed up then gimme a holler.

Thanks for the welcome and the offer.

I'll probably end up ordering a set online... But I think I'll source my electronics first and get my old soldering iron out smiling smiley

Hey Corin,

I'm located in Bendigo and are just in the throws of finishing my first Prusa build. By no means an expert by I lurk around here a bit.

HI..

If you are looking for the electronics I have one RAMP 1.4 kit left or I could assemble it if you need...

Thanks for the offer Auzze, but I had already ordered my electronics... I got a full DIY kit from reprapworld.com including the Arduino and stepper drivers. (Also keen to get the soldering iron out winking smiley

Hi Corin,

I'm in Maldon, but as you can see not too active in the RUG. My Mendel is still a work in progress, but nearly there!
I'm printing with a ToM at the moment.

I'm printing some parts for a bloke at the moment (see my main post), and may be able to help out a bit down the track.

Cheers
Hi Corin,

I am in Kangaroo Flat (if you consider that a part of 'Bendigo' ;-)

Am just finishing a Prusa
