Hi thought id put this thread out im starting to collect stuff to start a build and looking for local help and parts im after the full set of plastic parts for a prusa menda i2, and wonder if anyone would print us the parts at cost ty, I want to build it to build other machinery ty

Chris,

Might be able to help. I live just south of Totnes and have a usually-working Prusa. It's doing a reasonable job with PLA at the moment - although it did try to burst into flames last night when the heated nozzle thermistor disconnected itself... Should be back "on air" shortly.

Give us a shout via PM if you're interested. I also do a good line in heated nozzles and blocks, and extruder drive bolts (due to having a milling machine in one corner of the garage!)
