Your worried about the size?

Lol

My RepStrap is twice as tall and just as wide as the chair.

It should do quite well as a Mendel RepStrap

Nice re-use case love this kind of re-cycling if you can design it so that you can still sit down while it prints that realy would be good.!

WOW - just think of the possible usable print area with that thing!
You could probably do 50 cm x 50 cm by 30 cm high!
Of course the build time would be also proportionally longer. spinning smiley sticking its tongue out
