Hello everyone,

I hope I didn’t miss the question group. I have been doing 3D printing for several years and I am addicted to it smiling smiley

.
I would like to make my own 3D printer based on the principle of a robotic arm. I have a lot of steeper engines at home, arduino boards, mega 2560 ... Do you have any idea how to start since I don't understand too much about electronics and programming?

Thanks for the help.

Ivan

Its called a scara 3d printer.. and they are notoriously wobbly.

but see [www.youtube.com] and there are many many other examples out there.

... or inform about "parallel scara" -- some decades better/higher stiffness smoking smiley

I am working on a scara now. Difficult because nobody has maintained the files to get it up and running.
