I have a plan to try and produce a B&T rap printer but im having trouble trying to modify the existing arduino firmware for the delta bot printers.

[reprap.org]

I have an idea of what i need to change but i dont know enough to go about it.

If somebody could help me with this itd be appreciated.

Unless you weight the end effector down greater than the force exerted by the extrudate, the extrudate will have a lifting force in the Z-axis.

understood, my initial plan is to have a 8' cubed printing area, with 2 full reals of material as counterweight on the extruder.

The guide lines i also have a plan for to move power and data on, but thats a future change.
