for carriage i have took this made in germany
[www.igus.fr]
it s the same price than cheap chinese and the quality is not the same..made in germany standart .

i have take my corners on robotdigg website (90euro with shipping cost)
i have already some others parts like hotend,belt,gears and ir sensor,inductive and capacitive sensor for auto bed
for motors i have bought nema 23 for this size i think it s better than standart.

one thing i don t buy it s the extruder...i don t know what is the best for this size...i don t want flyhing extruder because it has bad looking..
i only print pla so i will don t buy heatbed for the moment
i will take pictures as soon as i will receive all my parts! i think the way is long before my next printer will be ready but it s what i like

Oh thank you. I was planning on using the same igus carriages and rails and was thinking about the metal carriages because the hole pattern is 15*20 and the Robotdigg ones were 20*20. I was thinking of all kinds of solutions. But I'll probably go with those. How do the igus carriages slide? Smoothly without much play? Quiet?

i have not receive my igus for the moment so i can say you as soon as i will have in my hands
but it s high quality german made so don t worry about the quality
on my chinese i have some balls which has rust...

pointless buying the endstop metal you could of got them printed saved you spending that much on them

Check my rubbish blog for my prusa i3

up and running
[3dimetech.blogspot.co.uk]

yes you are right but i would like to build full metall kossel

A should have printed the endstop mounts and got a real hotend (e3d) and good electronics (duet).

for the board i have already bought one but it s not a duet(too expansive for me) but a lerdge board which has everything and more for half the price.
i have received from robotdigg my corners,and almost all to begin the build..
i will make pictures as soon as i can

I dont get the "homemade" part in your tittle ...What exactly is homemade is you buy all the parts ?

not a kit.

yes you choose by yourself you parts

Well look like a have a different version of what homemade mean, for me its made/produce your own parts more than assemble your own kit.

Do you consider home made cupcakes to be homemade only if the maker milled the grain into flour?

Any progress on the all metal Delta?

The stuff from China must have arrived by now.

Lykle

my project move on slowly because i am really busy at this moment
but i have received almost everything from china
now i need to buy in eu shop my motors, bed surface, screws, and others parts that i need
my controllers is ready here and will be the lerdge board with auto detection end filament,and all great features (newest firmware available 2.0 with new interface which is more and more userfriendly, new auto bed algorithme..next release will be laser support and wifi)

Have you worked out all the details yet, such as how long the arm are going to be?
Also, how do you plan on tensioning the belts with those carriages? It doesn't look like they're adjustable.

i adjust tension belt with the up frame
for arm lenght i use a calculator

i just to order extrusion
i have took this size
2040 *3pcs 1200mm(black)
2040 *3pcs 500mm(black)
2060*3pcs 500mm (black)

i have already corners from robodigg and all screw needed to build the structure
it take fews time for me because i have ordered anycubic i3 mega so my project was
