Yeah,

I had these old Mendel parts laying around the house for a couple of years. I finally got around to build it smiling smiley

guess not many original Mendels are built any more.

Today I printed some parts to improve it. Starting to feel like a real RepRapper!

The pieces even came with a Certificate of Authenticity with its heritage description (from the first RepRap printer).

That's awesome. Way back, I was never able to get a hold of any printed parts, so I built myself a McWire. Then used that to build other printers.

The original Mendel design actually isn't bad, though it is a bit complex.
